Icom VS-3 Bluetooth headset review

CW operation

  • The signal is delayed by 30ms, so it is not possible to keying CW from the local paddle. Na osciloskopu vidime zlute originalni CW tecky o rychlosti 28 WPM a na modrem prubehu audio zpozdene pres Bluetooth modul VS-3.
  • The telegraph signal rings/rattles unpleasantly in high tones. Audio is at the limit of applicability. It would probably be enough to add a simple low pass filter. The emphasis on high tones can be seen on the next sweep measurement in SSB mode.

SSB operation

  • Signal delay in SSB mode does not matter. The audio accentuates the higher notes, but it's not annoying. On the image from the oscilloscope we see a yellow signal representing the original audio from the headphone output, which slightly suppresses the higher tones. The blue waveform shows the audio from the Icom VS-3 Bluetooth module, which significantly emphasizes high notes and adds noise.
