Hello Rick,
I don't know what to add to this discussion here and it seems we
are going around in circles.? Maybe try the advise and use another
radio to give you another reference point?? As it's been mentioned
MANY times on this list, many people have taken a problematic
packet setup, just swapped out the poorly functioning Baofeng
radio and then everything started working 100%.? Many of these
Baofeng radios present a variety of problems that is generally NOT
solvable w/o a better radio.

Ok, now that we're on the same page, I would have to
assume the issue is with VOX on your Baofeng radio which isn't
recommended to be used anyway.? If you want to pursue this
anyway, I would recommend to first confirm that AFSK audio
sounds are coming out of the USB sound device's playback jack.?
If it is when you expect it (beacons, digipeated packets, etc),
then the issue is purely on the radio side and you'll need to
tune the radio's VOX RX settings to be more sensitive to
incoming audio, etc.

Packets are transmitted when beaconing. I hear them on other
radios. When digipeating, I there is only an empty signal. There
is a transmission, but no packets. I got rid of the buzz by using
2 turns of the Baofeng cable cound card on a ferrite close to the
radio.
