If your audio is "too bassy" fix the problem with the 10 band EQ. Most ham rigs cut the low end response and put a pre-emphasis on the 2K frequency range and do not have the full range EQ that PowerSDR has. Everyone should use the EQ because no one's voice has a flat frequency response. I would rather have control of the audio response rather than having it "fixed" for me with ridged TX filters.
"The down side is you have double the failure rate as a computer is involved..." I think you mean failure probability rather than "rate" since there are two process critical components involved. Computer hardware is fairly reliable, if maintained with reasonable care. -Tim -----Original Message----- From: flexradio-boun...@flex-radio.biz [mailto:flexradio-boun...@flex-radio.biz] On Behalf Of Burt Sent: Friday, January 22, 2010 12:13 PM To: flexradio@flex-radio.biz Subject: Re: [Flexradio] naive question... I get the same compaints you get and I got my Heil from Flex. I got better audio with a Icom type hand mike that comes with basic rigs. One must understand that there are plusses and minuses to the Flex. The down side is you have double the failure rate as a computer is involved with its own issues. The upside, need I tell you, there are many starting with the panadapter. No one has better customer service.
