Hi Bill,

Thanks for the rapid answer and sorry for the trouble, but I was 
confident in my mirophone wiring, and the problem was there!!

Now everything is fine, without the need of --ignore-pp-ptt, and audio 
sounds great on a nearby receiver with the Heil PR781 in Penelope!
The next step is to follow Penelope with an old Kenwood TS50 power 
amplifier and filters. It's a small bloc easily removable from the TS50, 
I just modified it a little to be able to command the filters 
commutation and the PTT from Penelope, and I think it will be a fine set!

Really nice and exciting project!

73, Roland f8chk.
