I seem to recall something on the rc systems web site which said that
you shouldn't plug a doubletalk directly into a sound card, because of
grounding out on the pc case or something like that. I also seem to
recall that rc systems has instructions on their web site for how to
build a transformer which you can then use to plug the doubletalk
safely into your sound card.
