[OZAPRS] Fw: 40M APRS frequencies

[Josh]

Yep, your RX volume is just a tad too high.
Either reduce the radio's volume or the sound card's mic/line in gain
until its closer to 50.
If you start direwolf with the arg '-a 10' it will report the audio
levels every 10 seconds which can assist with setting the volume initially.
