I just set up a remote base with deemphasized audio, not discriminator.

On usbradio.conf when I set up rxdemod=flat, the audio sounds very bassy coming from my remote base, so I changed it to rxdemod=speaker.

I restarted asterisk, and now no audio came from the radio, just a dead carrier, even when I turned the rx level to 999 in usbradio.conf.

I figured it out, I had to turn rxsquelchdelay off.
