Hello Winston,
I can't answer question #1 but did some testing on question #2. I see
little or no attenuation of audio with a NR setting of 5. With a setting of
9 there is some loss of audio but not much, not even enough to need to
change the volume control setting. I am also using the 307 external speaker.
My test was on 75 meter SSB.
Tnx, Mike Cumbo, ND4S

Subject: [TenTec] Omni VII questions
I bought a used Omni VII two months ago and am really enjoying using it.
I have two questions that other Omni VII users might can answer:
1. In the instruction manual, it says the speech processor is “RF
compression.”
Does that mean it’s the same type RF compressor used in the Ten Tec Model
715 processor?
2. I use my Omni VII with the optional Model 307 external speaker. The
receiver seems sensitive, but with the DSP on, even at lowest 1 setting, I
have to turn up the AF volume control to nearly 100 percent to get
adequate volume. (I also have a Jupiter and it fills the room with sound
at settings around 30-40%.)
Is there likely something wrong with my radio or does the Omni VII
normally have low volume output?
Just hoping other Omni VII users can help me out.
73, Winston K4CWQ
