Applied Engineering Phasor Help



Hey, guys!

I have the Applied Engineering Phasor sound card in an Apple IIe in slot 4.
It's currently set for native Phasor mode (switches 1 and 2 are closed). I
connected the Apple IIe built-in speaker to the Phasor at P2. I downloaded
the diskettes off the web and was able to create them just fine. I booted
off of disk 1, and it found the card. I ran the "Test Phasor" option, and it
passed the read/write test. But then the display shows it playing different
sounds, but I don't hear anything. I tried plugging the internal speaker the
other way in case it was backwards, but it didn't change the result. I then
plugged my headphones into the left/right channels on the front of the card.
All I get are distorted electrical sounds, sounding like a ham radio rig not
tuned to the right channel.

I hear this card is pretty rare, so I'd like to get this card to work. What
I've done so far is pull out and re-set all of the chips on the card. I've
also cleaned the edge connector, but it hasn't changed the symptoms. I
noticed there are two POTS on the card, but I don't have any documentation
that tells me what they do, so I haven't tried messing with them just yet.

Other things... I tried it both in my Apple IIe Platinum, and an Apple IIgs
ROM 03, both with the same symptoms.

Any insight as to what may be wrong would be great! :)
