I've done extensive testing on both a ts570, and a ts2000 with the tx eq
settings, and find that for any of 3 different microphones, the "off"
setting sounds the best. I had a local ham record my audio and send me the
wav files...he was using the audio out on the accessory jack of his rig, so
there shouldn't have been any coloration from his receiver audio amp.
The C setting sounds close to the "off" setting, but I think they add in
some mid range punch which makes it sound a little naisally
I never could get the eq and band width software for the ts2000 to work with
JAWS...seems very graphical and I could never get it to do what I wanted.
I think you can only go 3KC on tx regardless of what you do in any software
without physically modifying the radio...I seem to remember you could get
around 4KC band width on receive with the help of the software.
Nothing like the 12KC tx band width I was listening to on 3840 last night.
Most guys who want to taylor their audio use external equipment such as
equalizers, enhancers, compressors and gates and so on.
I suppose if you set the tx eq to FP, then use an external EQ, you might get
the best results...with no coloration in the audio from the radio.
