Spending some time here by telling several times on AO-85 passes about bad modulation to the same stations, but they DON'T listen.
Just ignoring them, because i cannot understand them on my TS-790/FT-847.No narrow FM and no PL tone. Never got a problem.
And please...why do some stations upload logs with DWNlink freq on sat qso's instead of the UPlink freq? Always having some rejected qsl's because qso's don't match due to wrong band. I log with VQlog, uplink and dwnlink freq etc, so i think the TX-freq is most important for logging sat'qso's and not the RX-freq?

Like Jerry said, its more an issue with mic gain or poor mic technique than anything else.

So a rig set to 5 kHz is what we all usually expect. 5 kHz deviation with 3 kHz audio (the usual top for most voice) would be about 16 kHz bandwidth. The deviation number alone is not equal to bandwidth. ("Carson's Rule") Low audio is usually just that, not talking loud enough, not talking into the mic properly, mic gain setting too low, food in the mic hole, etc.

I have heard the some manufacturers of hand-held and mobile rigs are setting their maximum deviation to 5 kHz or even less. I have noticed the same effect on local repeaters. Has anyone done any tests of the deviation required for reasonable quieting on AO-85? Or are more stations using lower power than in the past?
