			== NinoTNC audio settings ==

			=== Receive audio level ===
			Adjust the audio of the radio attached to the NinoTNC until the left-most red LED ''just'' stops flickering. Adjust it a bit too high at first (start flickering), then dial it back until the flickering stops. The audio of the radio is the receive audio level of the NinoTNC. If your radio has a direct data connection (e.g. DE-9 connector) it may not honor the volume setting, and instead have a fixed value. In that case, use the DATA dip switch (see above) and the volume will be fixed.

			If you cannot get the left-most red LED to flicker at all, you may need to enable the 11x DIP switch (see above).

			=== Transmit audio level ===
			The "TX DEV" potentiometer (small dial you can adjust with a screwdriver) on the left of the NinoTNC controls your transmit audio volume. Turn this up only as high as needed for your neighbor to cleanly receive your signal. If unsure, set it somewhere in the middle and adjust it up and down during a [[linktest]] until your neighbor receives nearly all your test messages.

			=== Transmit delay ===
			Since radios don't transmit instaneously, a short delay is needed between when the NinoTNC has outgoing data to send, and the radio is prepared to receive it. The "TX DELAY" potentiometer on the right of the NinoTNC controls the transmit delay. Listen to NinoTNC's signal on another radio (e.g. an HT), hit the test button, and adjust the transmit delay until you ''just'' hear a short tone before the packet audio (which sounds like static). The delay is accomplished by playing a tone for a fixed duration before each transmit. If you're hearing a very long tone before the packet, the transmit delay is set too high.
