9600 Baud option?

[Se7en]

What exactly is 9600 ?

I am asking because, when i turn it on the audio sounds different, no bass. it does sound alright to me..... on occasion.

iv only turned it on while rag chewing...and evening nets on 2m.

It is your speed of data transfer from your radio to maybe a computer through the com port, so it shouldn't have anything to do with your audio

I used to build cables and make computers talk to the machines on the floor, and they had to match baud rate, or pulse rate in order to communicate.

Here you Go:

i made this morning real quick to show you there is a audio change on receive.

Baud 9600? Vhf audio difference. - YouTube

Well I definitely hear a difference, why I do not know. In the manual on Page 6 and 116 explains a little of the 9600 rate. Maybe it has something to do with the packet option? I do not know.

Faster data speeds (baud rate) require a wider bandwidth.

Data as in psk31?
Or data between the pc and radio for programming?

Everywhere. In this case it is between the two radios which is why you need a wider bandwidth on the receiver.

The poll is a tad different on this forum

I still don't understand ...... iv been using it when I rx local pd stuff. Cause it makes the audio different.

Audio doesn't need much bandwidth, just curious, where is set when it sounds the best? It is interesting that band width would make any difference.

Well when im listening to wx band I turn it on it cuts out any mids or lows and makes it all treble.

So are normally listening to the wx on the radio itself and then turning on the 9600 baud connection and the listening through the computer speakers? I guess I'm not following.
Well I didn't sleep any last night either.

Ok.no problem

When I turn on 9600 it changes any VHF receiving audio output on any external speaker. Nothing is plugged into any computers.

9600 baud is used in conjunction with the data port, usually with a TNC. For example, you might use packet on 2 meters at 9600bps. When you activate 9600, it seems that the radio is applies a preset filter bandwidth which is more narrow than needed for voice. That is why the audio quality changes.
