[Elecraft] OT National Hearing Test

[David Ahrendts]

Nope. I’m in the evil, ugly TV news business. I plead guilty to promoting things I find interesting and this was one — it is a hearing test based on ambient audio interference and sequences of three numbers progressively buried in the noise. Not unlike what we do everyday in amateur radio. Based own your answers, you get an average result. Mine: a little hearing loss on both ears. Slightly concerning because the XYL (or Gawd I used that term — surely lighting will strike!!) says I do not hear her all the time. Then again, I used an iPhone. I will try again with a dedicated land line. It is genuinely an interesting listening experiment.
