When I was operating portable on the beach in Hawaii, I tried using the speaker but found that I really had to use headphones, particularly if I ended up doing any cw ragchewing... It was really hard to hold a conversation due to the varying noise level of crashing waves and folks having fun..
Just my experience..

I have had no problems using the internal speaker on my KX2 operating in the field. Plenty of volume and clarity, even operating in some fairly brisk winds. My experience is strictly CW, but imagine SSB would be the same. With the internal battery pack, it is a totally self-contained rig (except antenna) in a single box you hold in your hand.
