DOES A RIGblaster WORK WITH THE JACKS ON THE BACK OF MY RADIO?
You can use the nomic with back panel jacks but we do not supply ready made cables for that purpose. You may wish to make your own using one of our stripped and tinned cables. If you go in to a line input on the back of your radio your will probably have to remove a 100 ohm voltage divider resistor R2 to increase the audio level. The rear panel connections on some radios may work, but others will have certain problems. Rear panel data, phone patch or auxiliary jacks may leave your microphone hot while transmitting with the computer causing illegal emissions the CW/data portions of a band. This problem is avoided, with our standard direct microphone jack connection. Rear panel inputs may not function with VOX and they may not work on many modes. Some will work on FM but not SSB others may work on LSB not USB, beware of this before spending time making your own cables for rear panel connections. As we recommend the microphone jack will always work properly! You can see why we use the mic
