Thanks Ricardo, I deleted your previous message before I had a chance to reply 
again. I should hav followed the JFGI rule, just freaking google it, found the 
place to check al by myself…aren’t I a good little user? Should have done that 
first before stumbling around, and certainly before I tossed it to the list.

Anyways, I checked the microphone permissions, and I think you’re right, as 
List Recorder is on the allowed list, and it doesn’t have the problem with the 
headset.

Ian.
