[Elecraft] Gap Hearit Speaker

[Tim Tucker]

I've used just about every DSP speaker available in my mobile, except
this one.  That said, the Gap speaker uses the BHI DSP module, which I
played with at Dayton and it was quite good compared to other options.
 The two best AF DSP modules I've seen are the West Mountain Radio
Clearspeech and the GAP/BHI.  BTW, I hated the SGC DSP speaker.  I
currently have the Clearspeech in my mobile with an Icom 7000.  I find
that the combination of a little IF DSP (used in the Icom 7000) used
in conjunction with some AF DSP makes for a very powerful NR
combination.

Keep in mind that NR intelligibility is fairly subjective to an
individual ear, so what I find helpful, another person may not like. I
have considered trying a similar combination on my K3 in my noisy home
environment, but haven't gone down that road yet.  I may still do that
unless we get word from Elecraft that a vast NR improvement firmware
update is coming soon.

Someone has recommended the Gap Hearit Speaker to me as being so wonderful. I have been checking into it, and it appears as just another DSP and speaker ckt. So, I’m wondering if it would really make any difference to me, with the K3 and it’s internal DSP.
