I **really appreciate everyone's help here.
Looks like there is/was a couple of us IC-705 (7300ish) guys with similar questions at the same time.
I wanted to report that I have now **successfully** completed my FIRST PAT WINLINK connection, so thanks everyone.
Here's the only remaining question I have...
My ALC was really high.
Pi newb here, so not sure where to go to adjust this on the pi???
Thanks!
T.M.
