Hello guys, need help trying to figure out this strange noise in my new linc 2 plus. Mic gain wide open barefoot all good no noise or wine sound . Turn box on mic gain max out weird noises . Back off mic gain to 3 o’clock all good no weird noise. Does it with or without talk back on or off.

I don’t have that radio (yet) but when I get unexplained noises the coax is the first thing I check.

Unplug and touch ONLY center conductor to radio (all precautions applied).

Same for power. Remove coax entirely (precautions) and see if it’s power-related.

Stock mic? All modes?
Mine is never above 32 with any mic, it just gets crunchy and picks up more background noise. Especially mobile.

Stock mic . All good barefoot. Only does it with amp on and mic gain max out

Only does it with amp on and mic gain max out

Can't help you with that, don't own an amp. Just keep the gain down, eh?

Ask for reports. Hook up a second radio to receive the first and with headphones, set Mic Gain to best compromise. (Leave any external speakers unplugged).

Turn the mic gain down so it doesn't squeal. Adjust the dead key to get the modulation you want. A second radio with headphones and no antenna will let you hear what you sound like and will help you set the audio level and dead key. This way you can get the most out of it without sounding crunchy. I would not operate my base station without it.

Do you have to use headphones?

Without headphones, you will get a feed back squeal. The speaker from the monitor radio will go straight into the mic. So the monitor radio will need to be about 20 feet away.

Do you have the Talkback function ON on the Lincoln 2? Just sounds like feedback. Turn off the TB.

Also may help to move amp further away from radio.

Try using headphones on the Lincoln 2 does the sound go away?

So I installed my 4 pin noise canceling on the radio and the noise stopped with mic gain maxed out. I bought a adapter 6 to 4 pin
