Any technical specifications? What gain does it have at 3KHz compared to
other frequencies and what range does it cover. Also what is the attack and
decay and gain on 3KHz?
I am interested to know if it would be any better than the processors I have
used before. Many such as Turner and Protel are way over the top and when
matched to a badly tuned CB they sound bad! They are completely unsuitable
for FM use but will work to some extent on AM, but are far better on SSB.
CBers need to get away from thinking the louder the microphone the more
power. You will hear many using a compressor on FM that is causing so much
splatter. People still turn the deviation on radios up in error.

Technical specs are forthcoming since this project is in it's early
stages. I can tell you that the attack time on the limiter is around
2mS, with a planned decay around 100mS. This decay time was chosen for
mobile operation to allow a rather quick drop in gain below the noise
gating... to block unwanted ambient noise. The output level will
certainly be adjustable and can closely resemble the outputs of
commonly used dynamic or electret CB mics. You are certainly correct
that if people disable the limiter/deviation levels... it could be a
problem... if they don't adjust the speech processor output to limit at
the optimum level. I suggest you go to
