Scott, I have HearClear enabled on my machine. I also have users with non-Motorola (i.e., Kenwood and EF Johnson) radios. They sound fine to me, so I believe the HearClear CODEC works to improve radio with the option enabled, but does not adversely affect radios without it.

Hello to group, A thanks to the group for all the help to my prior posts. Your time to post and reply was very much appreciated thanks!!. Well my question here was on "hear clear"... I have noticed some repeaters back east use it. In the menu you can enable it for any channel in your radio, and disable it for other repeaters that dont use it, so channel specific is good. The only negative I saw was that it would probably only work on Motorola radios and the Johnson or Kenwoods would not benefit or maybe sound poor to them. But since most the guys in my city use Motorola [GTX, Spectra,Maxtrac]I didnt see that as a problem. So Is there anyone using it in their repeater that can tell me if it is worth doing. Does it really improve the audio. At 2.5kc Dev we could use a compander for the weak voices. Thanks again and 73s ------------------------------------ Yahoo!
