Have tried all combinations I can think of, the basic issue is I think a software one. The software is not written to take alternative sources of input other than the digital software via the loopbacks when the digital mode is selected on the sbitx. I think ultimately the application will need to be altered in order to accept alternative microphone inputs for SSB modes.
The software as written from my observations anyway, doesn't lend itself to changes to modules as there isn't for example, a specific I/O module that could be altered to add/remove inputs/outputs to feed the rest of the radio software.
I think this could make a big difference if a specific I/O module could be created that allowed a choice of I/O especially for SSB modes which is where it matters the most to provide the needed flexibility. However this is probably a major surgical operation for the software and beyond my current capabilities.
I have a physical headset I can use but disappointed I could not make a full USB capability work, for the moment anyway.
The fist microphone supplied failed on me on a portable activation, suspect it is either connector or cable issue as the insert I used worked fine on the headset I have now modified with it.
I am going to take a break from this issue for now and continue to put the radio through its paces on SSB using a pc headset connected to the connectors on the side.

I understand where you are coming from. This product seems like a never-ending platform for improvements and it stinks that we seem to hit brick walls at every turn. I am thankful that you started the thread to get our gears turning and experiment with different options.?
