So our local hamradio club had its annual tailgate hamfest last night.  It was not very big, and it was kind of warm, but there were refreshments and cookies, which was a good deal in its own right. The great score was a Clear Speech base unit.  The condition is less than perfect, and the previous owner has modified it to have a headphone jack and switch on the front cover, but for $15.00 I am not sure how I could pass it up!  It works fine, and is a great addition to my shack.  Love how well it cleans up noise on the band.

Um, I'll take vague and ambiguous for 800 Alex.

Whats a Clear Speech?

It sounds like its an external DSP unit.

That does noise reduction.

I've seen those, and my first thought was that I needed to add a switch and earphone jack.

Why the manufacturer does not do this from the factory, I don't know.

I have the CLR-SPKR from West Mountain Radio, and they have a 1/8" earphone jack on the back so that you can use cans and still take advantage of the DSP in the speaker.

I really like it.  Got to use it tonight on my 160m windom for the QSO party.  It worked very well.
