Tom,

For what it's worth, when you decide to try audio connection via the usb 
port, there is another program you need to download from Kenwood and 
install to get audio working.  Depending on how you have things set up 
you can possibly lose JAWS speech until you get the sound card selection 
sorted out. So, more fun down the road.  But like Ted Kennedy said 
"We'll drive off that bridge when we come to it".  73, Steve KW3A
