ok question: I hit a contact tonight less than 1/8th mile away, and he says I was really crackly and spattery, he was kind enough to record it and play it back for me. it sounded like crap. really crunchy, like I was talking through a bowl of rice crispies, the first few words were only a little crackly and compressed sounding and the longer I spoke the worse it got.

any suggestions as to what I should look at on my device? I tried switching mic's no difference.

there is a football game going on in front of my house (I live next to the football feild) I am wondering if it may have been interference from equipment set up for radio broadcast at the game? but the other guy was clear as day so I doubt that's the case. other wise my reception would probably be as bad as my transmit right?
