I remember the guys running Siltronix and Browning Golden Eagles had the nicest, crispiest audio. That was decades before people started trying to use expensive rack gear pretending to have hi-fi audio. Nothing sounds better TO MY EARS on the CB and amateur bands than well adjusted communications audio. Audio that actually fits within the bandwidth of the transmitted signal.

A ham buddy of mine who lived about 10 miles away from me in the early 90's used to run a Yaesu FT-101XX (can't remember the exact model) and a D-104. Great audio there. The Kenwood TS-140S also sounds really nice with a D-104. I need to re-wire one for my 140 and get it back on the air.

[QUOTE="RatsoW8, post: 534626, member: 11356"] I remember the guys running Siltronix and Browning Golden Eagles had the nicest, crispiest audio. That was decades before people started trying to use expensive rack gear pretending to have hi-fi audio. Nothing sounds better TO MY EARS on the CB and amateur bands than well adjusted communications audio. Audio that actually fits within the bandwidth of the transmitted signal. :) A ham buddy of mine who lived about 10 miles away from me in the early 90's used to run a Yaesu FT-101XX (can't remember the exact model) and a D-104. Great audio there. The Kenwood TS-140S also sounds really nice with a D-104. I need to re-wire one for my 140 and get it back on the air. [/QUOTE]
