[ICOM] Clear Speech Speaker vs. MKIIG

[Gary Smith]

In the mobile application, Bob may be correct,
although I know a number of hams who run the 706 MKIIG
mobile and love it.  I have a MKIIG and a 746 Pro that
I use for base station operation.  I have tried the
clear speech product and have seen no positive results
from it; in fact, I feel like I wasted my money.  I
wish I could help you on the noise problem; I have a
hard time believing that the noise is being generated
by the radio.  If that was the case, wouldn't you have
the same problem anywhere you tried to use it?
