How To Listen To Your CB Audio ?

[Oldme]

OK, so I understand, what you transmit as in modulation
would sound different than the modulation from a talkback?
I am not familiar with talkback as I do not use it.

I thought over modulation would show-up either place,
as an over modulated voice sound.

The unit I was looking for to link to, is not on e-bay right
now. That one connected with a coax jumper between the
antenna and the transmitter.
Then headphones would plug into that.
That unit would monitor the sound, the way you are indicating
would be more accurate.

If you have something like that youll never need a radio check again. They are very cheap to build. The guy on ebay called it the audio checker or something like that. I have around $10 in the one I built. It would have been cheaper if I hadn't bought a new project box and so-239s. You can use an old pot from a junk radio to control the volume.

This is what I first found:
eBay item #321522541218

Those of us that for several reasons can not or do not built everything
have to buy stuff.

Oh and in reference to my other reply, does talkbak indicate over modulation?
I have never used it. Some of these toys were not in vogue when I was into CB before and honestly can not see me using for them while talking now.
So I am asking a real question.

No, it does not

Yup; probably the better way to go. You can buy a simple SDR receiver for about $18 that hooks up to you PC or laptop and comes with an antenna. Does SSB and FM too.

Poor idea. The nooelec is overdriven easily, but can be modified to work. It's a toy..a cool toy but a toy.

Thinking about getting one of these because they can be had for so little and have so many useful features with the software. Would use a dummy load instead of the supplied antenna; that should cut down the overload considerably.

But it does that too.
