[arm-allstar] PTT Delay idea

[john at qso.com]

It's a DMK URI. The output is already at 995 on the output menu. I know
something's not right. I have 2 URI's, both seem to act identically.

John,

What is your audio input source? Can you turn the input level up some before
the SMM2167--that's probably the simplest solution??
