Hi,
I am also a bit hard of hearing...  I had a hearing test, and asked for
a copy of the Frequency, vs amplitude graph.  This shows me my best
frequency for being able to hear...

I then set the Zero beat to that frequency, and I was able to copy about
50% more than what I set by listening...

Thanks and 73's,
