My apologies, I directed you incorrectly in my earlier post. Clipping occurs when you have your receive audio is set too high.
To correct this issue, do the following:
Right click speaker icon in system tray>Sounds>Recording>”Levels” Tab –Configure so Receive Audio Level is about 30 dB when no signal present. It's a good idea to test this when connected to a dummy load. Make sure mic isn't muted (small icon to right of recording level slider bar.
