How many times have you heard one give a signal report of 59 or such then
followed by "can you repeat your name and QTH"? Now looking at that analogy
of that report, the 5 = Perfectly readable, and 9 = Extremely strong
signals. From that we must deduct that the transmitting station's audio was
terrible or the receiving station operator was indeed deaf from using
headphones for years.

Be very careful, Its my understanding that even
writing about headphones can cause a hearing loss
HUH? WHAT? I CAN'T HEAR U
Seems to me it isn't the headphones that are the
problem it's the crankin up the friggin volume thats
the problem
