Hammin' Around Answer


B. An overmodulated signal is distorted and difficult to understand. This can cause a signal with excessive bandwidth that gives interference to nearby signals - splatter. Setting the mike gain control too high or overprocessing the signal with a speech processor can cause overmodulation. Set it so there is a slight movement of the ALC meter on modulation peaks.
