external speaker placement

What kind of radio is it????

 

Cobra 25. Supposably has been peaked and tuned so he says. Im not sure though, however iam sure it does have the talkback

 

Most likely a fixed resistor is soldered inside the radio for talkback. The value needs to be increased to lower the talkback to a reasonable level, but likely your friend will not want you playing with their CB. This only leaves you the options of moving the speaker and/or lowering the mike gain. The problem with too loud a talkback in your case is you reduce your transmit audio too much if you have to lower the mike very far. So best option is finding a better speaker location.

 

Talk back

Kinda like the old sidetone for CW I guess .....

 

It's a "trucker thing".....you wouldn't know!!!

 

ya i wont even bother and just deal with it. sometimes it works and sometimes it doesnt
