Not a problem...

You are correct of course! Would you mind correcting the thing and
resubmitting it for me, with my apologies?
As usual I am trying to do several things at once. See you later.

Hey, buddy - *I* know how smart you are, but telling someone something
about something
wont hold much creedance if the someone reading it can't make out what
it is you're saying...
I'm not criticizing, just trying to help.
Mispelled words are in *'s and the replacement is located (within).

An 8 ohms speaker will work fine and will have less distortion
and generally better fidelity but will not be *quiet* (quite) as loud as a 4
ohm.
You could parallel two of these 8 ohm speakers for the 4 ohm load.
You might consider using some of the little amplified analog
speakers that *or* (are) made for computers. Some, in the 35 to 50 dollar
range, are very nice with their *on* (own) amplifier, having volume and bass
treble controls with a bass speaker and two small satellite speakers.
They come with a mini stereo connector for connecting to a computers
audio output but the connector can be cut off and the two stereo coaxial
lines tied in parallel for mono operation. You could just plug it in
*too* (to) a mini female connector and wire the female connector to the HQ110
audio output or get an adapter that will go from the mono head phone
jack on the radio to the mini stereo male connector of the speakers.
The input impedance on these speakers in generally in the *my* (?) range of
1000 ohms so they *want* (wont) produce much of a load on the radio's output and
this will improve the fidelity of the output section of the radio. A
lot of time, the *cheep* (cheap) speakers in the twenty dollar or less range
actually make better communication speakers and will produce less hum
because of their poor low frequency response. Some of the real *cheep* (cheap)
ones *or* (are) not stereo, even though there *or* (are) two speakers and a
stereo
connector but they are amplified. These can be purchased for less *that* (than)
ten dollars and work -quiet- (quite) well for communication speakers but not for
fidelity in frequency response.
