[App_rpt-users] Low audio out

I run nodes 2498 and 27333 details as follows

 

Node: 2498 is off an Alinco DR135MKIII and the radio is in 9600 Baud so
audio is from discriminator and modulator. This works great and the settings
are:

[usb]

; name=usb

; devicenum=2

devstr=2-1

rxmixerset=875

txmixaset=500

txmixbset=500

rxvoiceadj=0.764955

rxctcssadj=0.500000

txctcssadj=50

rxsquelchadj=500

 

The second node off the same PC node 27333 is off a Yaesu VX2000 and set up
as above to feed flat audio in/ out. The settings have been changed but at
best the audio out is so low only if I have the volume on my receiver at 90%
I can hear the stations Settings are:

[usb1]

; name=usb1

; devicenum=1

devstr=3-2

rxmixerset=400

txmixaset=600

txmixbset=600

rxvoiceadj=1.549599

rxctcssadj=0.506345

txctcssadj=50

rxsquelchadj=750

 

I have changed the rxmixerset=600 up to 900 with no great increase.

 

This is the USB settings:
