Yes. The larger values indicate that something is seriously wrong. It sounds like the soundcard is setup for +4 dBU output (instead of -10dBv). Look at the Delta 44 Control Panel on the Hardware Settings Tab. This needs to look just like the pictures shown in the Delta 44 Quick Start guide seen here: www.flex-radio.com/delta44/delta44.htm.
