If you need to adjust the transceiver drive level during operation you can use 
the front panel controls and leave the settings in the Audio Mixer untouched. 
Knob TX1 (11) adjusts the drive for RADIO1, knob TX2 (14) adjusts the drive 
for RADIO2.
With MK2R+ you can take 
advantage of the internal Voice 
CODEC to adjust transmit 
audio equalization. Click on the 
TX Mixer button, select Options 
and enable Advanced Controls. 
On the Master (Speaker) 
channel, selecting the "Advanced" button will open an 
additional widow will appear with Treble and Bass equalizer 
settings. You can experiment here to adjust VOICE 
equalization as well as AGC and bass boost. These settings 
will be applied only to VOICE modes because digital modes 
use the USB Audio CODEC in MK2R+.
TX DIGITAL (AFSK/PSK/etc. – transmit levels)
These controls adjusts output level for DIGITAL mode operation. If the channel is 
active, the green rectangles, one for each radio, will light. If they do not light, click 
on the TX Mixer button and unmute master the Volume (Speaker) and Wave 
controls.
As with the voice mixer, there are four (4) sliders, two for RADIO1 (R1) and two for 
RADIO2 (R2).  Each pair has a WAVE slider and MASTER slider (the Master 
Volume or Speaker control). The pair used for each radio is determined by the 
Left/Right channel selector on the Audio Switching tab.
As a starting point, set the MASTER level to about 80% and adjust for proper drive 
with WAVE slider. 
If you need to adjust the transceiver drive level during operation you can use the 
front panel pots and leave the settings in Audio Mixer untouched. 
Knob TX1 (11) adjusts the drive for RADIO1, knob TX2 (14) adjusts the drive for 
RADIO2.
Test Signal: causes MK2R to output a 1500 Hz audio tone for setting the transmit 
output level for AFSK digital modes. The radio with transmit focus will be keyed. 
Note: The TX Mixer button on the digital side of the Audio Mixer tab starts a different sound card 
than the TX Mixer button on the VOICE side of the Audio Mixer tab. To check that the proper mixer 
has been assigned, click the Get ID button and confirm that the proper sound card is selected. If the 
names do not match, restart Router.
