[Ham-Mac] TS-570 / iMic mismatch.

Dick,

I'm running two machines - a G3 iBook running 10.3.9 and a G4 tower 
running 10.4.1. No, I'm not using the SL-1+. As we discussed earlier 
I am using the Donner interface for I/O and the MicroHAM for computer 
control.

Technology.

Actually, anything over 600 ohms should work fine.  I have run the 
570 I/O direct (no isolation or interface) to the iMic with the same 
results. I use the Donner just for ground loop isolation.

I changed the subject line. :)
