![]() At work, I can almost never hear the mechanics when they’re out back trying to talk to me.But ‘real-world’ stuff doesn’t work that way. For normal ham radio stuff, this doesn’t really matter and any 19-cent microphone can be soldered in and work just fine. (You could do a lot with DSP and make audio sound much better, but someone should at least do the minimum…) This is also the place to mention that I’d really like it if your radio would do some volume normalization. Something as simple as a notch filter would eliminate a lot of the nuisance noises and make listening much more pleasant. It’s actually pretty easy to filter it out, and ‘base’ HF ham rigs have been very good at it for a long time. There’s lots of extraneous noise on most signals. Why don’t more people include good speakers?! I’d gladly pay $50 to upgrade to a radio with substantially better audio quality. It probably costs $5 more to include the best speaker ever put in a radio in. ![]() The Motorola radios have a nice ‘deep’ sound, whereas most other radios sound somewhat tinny.
