Re: [Elecraft] MIC + Line-In Feedback Noise

2009-03-06 Thread Joe Subich, W4TV

Bud, 

Depending on your soundcard you should be able to turn 
off the "monitoring" so you don't need to change the  
Line In level.  For example, with the SoundBlaster 
Audigy 2ZS, open the "Recording Control" (input mixer), 
click the "Advanced" button on the Analog Mix input and 
select "Record without Monitoring."  Some Realtek chips 
include the inputs on the output (speaker) mixer but 
they are generally hidden (select Options | Properties 
and show all of the unchecked controls).  You can unhide 
them and make sure the Line In (it may be shown as a 
"color") is muted. 

73,

I am not sure why you have MIC+LIN turned ON, but I suspect you are 
getting noise pickup from the microphone.  Perhaps you have MON turned 
up to hear the outgoing signal and the microphone is near the speaker so 
you get a feedback loop.

[Elecraft] MIC + Line-In Feedback Noise

2009-03-05 Thread Bud Governale, W3LL
Thanks to both Eric K3NA and Rich VE3KI, I now have Line-In working.

That leads to a new related issue:

When MIC + LIN is turned ON I get feedback from somewhere when I key with the 
foot switch in SSB without saying 
anything.
If I turn MIC + LIN to OFF the feedback is gone.
I closed N1MM just to be sure it wasn't causing a problem. It wasn't, the 
feedback was still there.

Any suggestions?

73,
