[WT-support] DVK TS590

[G3WVG]

Hi Laurent
Thanks for your help... Particularly  for pointing out that the PTT function mutes the USB input!
All working now but with an unacceptable high level of noise on the audio. I guess it's being generated somewhere in my laptop. Hopefully I can find out what's causing that, otherwise it's back to analog.

Thanks again.. Ian G3WVG.

(At present I use my laptops internal sound card and connect to the radio via an audio cable and isolating transformer plus loads of ferrites. It works fine but it would be neater just to have a USB lead.) If anyone has done this successfully perhaps you could point me to any documentation. So far I've failed dismally! By the way I'm using Windows 7.

And these two PTT are exclusive. It means that if you switch the TS590 with the usual PTT input, no USB audio will go thru, and if you switch it with the PKS input, no mic audio will go thru.
