Thanks for the suggestions guys.  I have come to the conclusion that the
audio is probably where it should be and that there is nothing amiss within
the audio circuitry.  I just installed the Ksb2 today and have that to play
with.  Listening with the ssb filters does make a fair difference in audio
sound compared with the cw filters.  I have to go through the manual a
couple more times and to perhaps repeat the alignment procedure as well
before I will get a good grasp on what is required.  I currently am getting
decent audio reports but not up to what my friends are used to hearing me
sound like on my Icom or Yaesu, but I suspect I will never get the radio to
that stage.  I do have a scope so maybe I can utilize it to best advantage
for setting up the audio and the filters.

Just wanted to pass along my thanks for the replies received to my question.
