Hello Howard and list: I think I have somewhat solved my problem: last night, I played around with the system volume on my computer! I first jacked it on up to a hundred percent! This, of course (while it far from made the light on the transmitter flicker) it just caused all kinds of "over-driven" sounds on my radios! So I settled on 68 percent; this gives me a sound I can live with as well as pretty much the volume I need! Thanks all for listening and thanks, Howard, for steering me in the right direction! Tom Kaufman

I've never seen that. However, I suspect that that control actually operates the software volume control in the system.
