After a call to Eric, I see now what he was talking about...

The output level on the D-44 does NOT allow you to isolate between 1&2
or 3&4.  Eric says that if you change it on the D-44 console BEFORE
you fire up the rig, it will automatically set it to the correct
setting, however if you try to change the setting to say 0 or +4 dB
while the rig is on, the software (PowerSDR) has no way to know that.
I keep mine on -10, which is what PowerSDR wants and it works fine for
me on output to speakers or headphones.  So I retract my previous
statement about changing that parameter!
