Oooops, that was it.   The mic gain was near zero.   Works good at 29 
now.   Wish there were two or more meters so multiple values could be 
observed at once.

But another problem has come up.   Even tho I can tune my antenna (it 
is a High Sierra screwdriver) to 1.0:1 SWR, when I transmit at high 
power (say 80 to 100), the High SWR indicator on the Panadapter comes 
on.   What gives??????
