Listening to one's own speech via another receiver, to optimise one's own 
transmit settings still gives a subjective result, *on average*, no better 
than another radio listener.  Inevitably, it will be a question of personal 
taste, unless you have special training.  It is true that radio amateurs are 
self trained to pick out particular words and phrases in contest or noisey 
conditions, but, is there no better way to make adjustments independent of 
taste and personal judgement?  eg speaking standard words to record speech 
spectrograms.  Can these be used to determine clarity?
