[wxsig] Problem with modem2 tx

[Mark Patton]

It's been a couple of years but I seem to recall having a similar 
problem.  The problem was that the audio level was too low going into 
the radio.  I remember changing out the serial resistor labeled R101 in 
the schematic for something smaller than a 10K.   I'm traveling this 
week so I don't have access to may marked-up schematics until later this 
week to tell you exactly what I did. 

You might try searching the forum archive for "low audio" or something 
similar.  I recall that I wrote up my findings on the forum.
