Thanks Bob, and your description is how I had the radio and computer set 
up when the computer was running Windows 10. I am now running a Linux OS 
(Manjaro 24) on the computer and there are lots more selections for 
sound/audio card in the pull down for the Soundcard Input and output. I 
will have a screen print of it in another post for all to see.
