20 dB for both per spec. I suspect they're both LMS, but haven't tried the Lingua. I do like the Hear It, even if it does have that watery LMS sound. But it isn't the ultimate solution either. And as you say, it's worthless on CW. Do I believe the other radio's NB are so much better? Nah. Not in a heartbeat.
It's hard to forget the vituperative NR discussions on the TT list back when I had Orions I/II. Some loved it on those radios, some thought it was less than a pile of dung. None of these things work miracles, which is what some expect. Nothing matters but (S+N)/N with and without, and I have yet to see anything definitive or believable except personal opine on how "nice" it sounds. Doesn't matter! Can you detect a weak signal in the presence of noise better? Is S/N really better? Measured? Anecdotal? Imagined? A vendor can make it sound great and no contribute much.

It is impressive the amount of noise these devices eliminate ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:[email protected] This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
