Personally I wouldn't trust any over the air comments while trying to adjust my TX audio. You must have overheard this fiasco on air! Almost everyone has a different view of how audio should sound, not to mention how they have you tuned in and their particular preferences. I really hate that heavy Bass sound so beloved of the ESSB guys.I know what I'd like to sound like and it's sharp...or if you like a tendancy to treble boost in the audio range. I know of course the debate between contest or DX audio and ragchew audio. I also think listening to yourself on a monitor receiver via phones is of limited use because of the sound colouration due to transmission through bone structure.
The best I can think of is to record your recovered audio on a monitor receiver then playback via a loudspeaker and make a judgement, of course it's required that the monitor receiver used is not being overdriven in any way. This assumes correct set up of TX passband and BFO, then the listening tests as above. Any other ideas? -- 73, Deni F5VJC For a Ham Radio friendly holiday in France...
