Well I believe it is better to 'close talk' most microphones in a typical Ham shack environment, 2 inches typically. Reduces background noise and reverberation. Most of us are not operating in a broadcast studio acoustically dead environment. Of course, adjust Mic gain and Compression to suit, and please, please no HEAVY Bass Eq it's totally wasted communications power and sounds rather NAFF IMHO. And, 3kHz audio BW is Plenty wide for our purposes. Compression is good, used properly.
Expert opinions please? 73, F5VJC On 11 April 2014 23:10, Phil Kane <k2...@kanafi.org> wrote: > On 4/9/2014 11:26 PM, F5vjc wrote: > > > This amazingly seems to be of no consequence to the majority as I very > > rarely hear bad audio or CW clicks being brought to the attention of the > > offending op. > > Just this week I had to admonish one of our net participants who fancies > himself as an electronic expert to back off about a foot from his > microphone so that his speech would be intelligible.
