You can actually do either. But do everything you would do on the outside of the radio to reduce noise… like using real MIC cable, ferrites, etc. Dr. William J. Schmidt - K9HZ J68HZ 8P6HK ZF2HZ

No SSB output

Here are my plans: Run a shielded cable from Mic Socket direct to Audio Hat Mic pins. Use back accessory IDC socket and run ribbon connector from there to Key inputs, Ground, and then a ground and wire from ribbon over to PTT in socket. Tnx for that hint Dr. Bill. That should be a bit cleaner, no need for 1/8 TRS cable for Mic. Cleans up busy side of Main board a bit. I will twist ribbon wires also per Dr. Bill.? Tim W4YN

"Line out" is an audio term, but we are calling it I and Q channels. It is good that the ground is in the middle, because you can easily flip the connector if you end up with I and Q channels reversed.

T41EEE.9 uses the Audio Adapter's headphone output for receiver audio, but that is its only involvement in the receiver. Also interesting is that there is a 2nd audio adapter device instantiated in the code and it has associated commands.? These commands do nothing. ? -- 73 Greg KF5N -- Jack, W8TEE

K9HZ All Messages By This Member #33577 开云体育 Tim, ? Oliver is correct… if the audio hat + software is working… you should see a audio-like waveform on J17… which is the generated I/Q output to the RF board.? You can trace that back to PINS 1 and 2 (I and Q) on the hat.? If you don’t see anything there to ground (and its about 0-200 mv), no sense going down stream to the RF, BPF, LPF etc. until that works. ? ? Dr. William J.
