No audio output from Flex 6300

Doug

My 6300 has been neglected for about a year. Today I rewired everything to get the 6300 back on the air. I installed the latest SmartSDR which did an update on the 6300. I plugged in a powered soundbar to the rear audio jack. I had tested the soundbar with a satisfactory buzz when I held the plug in my fingers. However, no audio came out. Clicking PC Audio off and on got click into the soundbar. But no audio. I tried to get audio through the attached PC - nothing. I plgged in a set of headphones - no audio. The 6300 has just sat idle for a year. I hope I'm doing something wrong. Otherwise, the alternative is the 6300 hs become junk. ANY help appreciated. (Sadly, I've gotten old and brain isn't what it used to be. So a mistake is certainly possible).

Does the sound bar have a stereo connector on it? If it is a mono connector it could be causing a problem. Otherwise, it is likely to be a slider not turned up enough in SmartSDR. There are three different sliders that can effect the audio output. In the upper right corner of SmartSDR is a master volume slider ,then one in the Slice receiver flag. And another on the right above the AGC-T slider. ( which can also effect volume if it is set all the way to the left. ) .

Can you post a screenshot of SmartSDR please.

I have realized my mistake. I had forgotten that each slice has its own volume control. Thanks for reminding me James. Amazing how much you can forget in a year. tnx & 73

Don't feel bad. I regularly forget things and just know my radio has messed up. Instead it is almost always pilot error!
