This week we had a great discussion on our Sunday evening Technical Forum (every Sunday at 7:30pm EST on the 145.150 W4GSO repeater, BTW!) about audio gear that we use to improve the quality of the sound we transmit or receive. That got me to thinking that it might be nice to put together a series of posts about audio, the types of gear we use to manipulate audio, and other basics specifically related to our hobby. So here (hear!) it is! My plan is to divide ideas up into multiple posts so that we can explore the concepts in a little more depth than could be done otherwise. I don’t plan on getting too deep – it’s not really necessary to do that – but hopefully this will be a helpful way to get the less-experienced among us to a good place.
