good you found the level adjustment.
there is always something to adjust the level of the speech
synth...surprised it's not in the accessories menu somewhere.
The ts570 and other kenwood/icom rigs have board mounted VR's to adjust the
output audio of the synth as well.
If i were a betting man, I would guess the adjustment is very close to where
the UT102 plugs in...sometimes these things make geographical sence...but no
definite for sures on that so I guess having someone locate the pot for you
while the rig is powered up and then adjusting the level to suit your needs
is the best way.
