Thanks for your time and efforts, I have had my sotabeams compreesor for a few years now and founf you video which helped alot. Nice to see you still using the 8217nd.
Hi Chris, I like your videos. I just ordered the speech compressor. What did you finally set the radio mic gain at? Also I’m just starting POTA w/ my 817 and Buddistick. Keep the videos coming. Thanks. W6DDM
Hello Chris, I wonder, can you in a few words let me know how satisfied (or not) you are with the compressor? Hope to hear from you. 73, good DX Gust ON6KE ON7QRP
Hi Gust! Thanks for checking the videos out! The compressor works great. I had great results with it the first time I used it for a POTA activation. Good reports for audio and signal. Since it’s not shielded in any way, if there is stray RF from a mismatched antenna, you might get that feedback I showed in the video. But that's only if you hold the box while transmitting which is unlikely. So, it's a good compressor, easy to use, and not too expensive. Hope that helps! Thanks again! 73 de K2CJB

So glad to hear the video helped! I still use it with the 817. Great combination!

Mine was bunk. I like Sotabeams but the QC can be a gamble. If you get this you better know what to do to fix it. I didnt, sold it at a loss.
Turn subtitles on and read the captions at 3:09 😁🤣

Your input is much appreciated Chris. OK I'll go get me one!
73, good DX, take care.

One thing I remembered is to bring the 817 mic gain down to around 50%. That’s where I run mine.
