To Compand or not (with kg1000plus radios)


Question

Posted

My scenario is two Ocean Kg1000plus radios. I only communicate between my base(home) and my pickup truck. Both using the kg1000plus. Would you guys reccomend turning the companding feature on both radios? Ive read a bit about companding as it compresses the audio and the other radio expands it when received and as a result it helps rid some of the extra noise and hiss from the transmission. Curious what you more knowledgeable guys would do in this scenario. Thanks.

I wouldn’t. It can cause a breathing background sound.
