Thanks aleigh. That's the same conclusion I've formed about the UAA. I've already played with the mixer settings quite a bit and that's how I got it to be vaguely useable. It works very well with what it's intended to do (PC, headset interface) but doesn't handle the role of radio, pc...
Alright, new cables came in and they have physical fit, but no function. Computer can send audio out and its received fine, but I can't seem to accurately get anything from radio to PC: I can hear audio at the PC that changes tone and static patterns based on what frequency and operating mode...
The cellphone actually provided all the power for the test, but if you have an interest in saving battery life, this adapter (what I used) also allows you to inject external power: https://www.monoprice.com/product?c_id=116&cp_id=11602&cs_id=1160202&p_id=11595&seq=1&format=2 I can't guarantee...

Sorry, almost missed your message. I have more practical functionality in mind, but you absolutely could use this for a static display. As a matter-of-fact, I've already unintentionally done that. I wanted some interesting chatter to listen to when first testing, so I pulled up YouTube videos...

The interface hardware? I spent $26 for the USB interface box...
Update on the General Dynamics device. It came in on Thursday and I've been playing with it off and on. First off, it's beautifully plug-and-play. I just grabbed the typical USB B cable and plugged it into a Windows 7 machine...in about 10 seconds, it had self installed and was ready for use...
I'm trying to figure out a good way to pass along audio from a computer to a military radio, and vice-versa. I've bought this General Dynamics USB Audio Adapter that I'm going to try out...
