I find the RX audio quality of the Argonaut VI to be exceptional when
compared to other like radios. In comparing it to the Corsair II, you
are comparing an analog radio to a digital radio. Yes there is and will
be a difference. Accept the fact and get over it.
As to hiss, the headphones do make a difference in what is heard. Be
realistic in your evaluation. Do you operate with no antenna and the RF
Gain to the left? I hope not. So, make your judgements with antenna
connected and RF gain in various positions with regard to band noise.
As to the pulsing noise when rotating the frequency encoder, it this
heard with normal antenna and RF Gain? If not, then it is not an issue.
Stop picking at stuff that isn't real under normal operating
conditions. Try different headphones and you will get different results.

Hi,
I just bought an Argonaut VI and got disappointed with the received audio
(when comparing it with a Corsair II).
When monitoring with headphones it improves a lot, but there is some hiss
in the background, even without antenna and the RF gain all the way to the
left.
Do you guys think that I might have a damaged audio amplifier? Is there an
easy way to improve the received audio with the in-built speaker? PBT/BW/NR
settings are OK, I even performed a factory reset.
Using headphones, I can hear a weak pulsing noise when rotating the
frequency encoder. Is there a way to eliminate that ?
