I'll bet you didn't know that you can double the power of an FM transmitter with a speech processor, huh? Stop talking nonsense... we both know that the doubling of power refers only to AM(DSB) signals. The claims are not aimed at you and I, they are aimed at CB enthusiasts without technical knowledge or experience to know the truth. By making "double your power" claims of "any CB", without clearly stating that it will not apply to FM CB, you are misleading the British consumer. The only possible reason you could have for making those claims within the UK, or not telling UK consumers that it does not apply to their CB, is to purposely mislead in an attempt to boost sales on a false promise. Naturally, I would hope that I could convince either you or the shops to drop the false claims within the UK, making it clear that there is no power gain for FM. But if not, do the words "Trading Standards" or "Ofcom" mean anything to you? However, don't discount the fact that VoiceMax can increase the usable range of an FM transmitter as well... And we cannot discount the fact that FM CB is not the same as broadcast radio. The 10KHz spacing was never intended for high quality sound, and will not allow it without splatter. UK FM CBs are designed, made and tested to do the best within the available bandwidth. This includes receiver specifications. You cannot polish a turd. FM with just 10KHz spacing is very much a turd. Like I keep telling you, we have had FM CB for 25 years. We have had the amps and processors... and the splatter that goes with them. I have also worked on many UK CB radios over the years, and have never needed a speech processor to get better modulation over distance. Regards, Peter. |
