I got the audio working now, double checked everything and the plug that
connects the wiring from the SSB/FM switch to the main board of the radio on
the bottom side was the problem, i unplugged it again and cleaned the
contacts and plugged it back in and now its works.
This radio doesn't have an upper mic connector, there is a delete plate over
it with a circle and CW SSB FM on it.
I will check the setting of R-72 now as it seems to be a little low on the
gain but working.
Thanks!
Scott
