Chris,

I don't think you are using a Kenwood TS-570 or a SignaLink interface.  My
issues with the iMac may be due to the Kenwood non-standard (4.7 K ohm)
audio out of the ACC2 port and/or the SL-1.

The iMic sounded like a great solution in theory but I never could get it to
work on he Rx side.  My setup works FB via the standard Mac line-in audio
interface.

Nice to know there is a solution for the iBook.
