[Elecraft] Echo and feedback un SSB

[GRANT YOUNGMAN]

Many, if not most, headsets found in the typical hamshack have significant audio leakage around the ear cups, and if they’re open back it’s even worse.  If you’re wearing headphones with the speaker turned off, you can get still get audio feedback while MON is turned on, and of course, it gets worse the more you have the monitor level turned up.

Best thing — use MON to check your signal and rather than leave it on to listen to your own fine glorious vocal tones, turn it OFF.
