[Icom] Re: Heil headphone/mike adapter

Thank you, Adam. I tried your exact settings but I still must have the
pre-amp or I do not get enough audio to trigger any output or the VOX.
However, it is possible  that I have the wrong adapter. My adapter is red,
and through the years I had Yaesu and Kenwood rigs. I may have bought that
adapter for one of those rigs.  My present  rigs are all Icom.

Thank you for you reply...
