2 Yel Red Sound Card Interface Requirements Audio from Receiver to PC Signal level Vp-p, typical signal is Vp-p Audio frequency range from 00 to 000 Hz, or whatever the Rx passband will allow Cables need to be shielded Sound Card Accepts Vp-p Before Saturating Software detects and warns against saturated signals at around. V p-p Ways to control the maximum level to the sound card: RX RF/AF Gain PC Volume Control Interface Level Control Sound Card Interface Requirements Audio from PC to Transmitter Sound Card output up to Vp-p at max level PC slider set at mid level - output is about Vp-p Rig expects microphone levels at about -0 millivolt p-p, so signal must be attenuated in the interface Frequency range from 00 to 000 Hz Max determined by Tx output bandwidth, typically 00 Hz Audio drive levels determine power output - usually run rig at % to 0% of CW rating for clean signal, and cool TX System is operating in an RF environment: Shielded cables - lengths under feet. Good grounding of all components - Rig, PC & Tuner Care taken to mute other audio sources during transmit Sound Card Interface Requirements SSB Rig Control TX On/Off Manual Switch - VOX - PTT via Serial Port Control on PC TX Audio Input - Mic connector or Accessory Port TX Audio Drive Level Set by combination of: Audio level from PC Attenuation level control on Interface Mike Gain on Rig RX Audio to PC Provided by Line Out, Speaker/Headset Out, Accessory Port Sound Card Interface.mm Stereo : 00 ohm Audio Transformer w/ switches J From Xcvr Waterfall Drive X Spkr Out k pot (Alternate) Audio Taper Primary J To R7 Sound Card Line In 8 Aud.
