Very good hear stations out of the noise.  Time owned: more than 12 months
This noise cancelling speaker works well. While running a special event station from South Africa I managed to hear and work on 8 nights stations from Europe that were lost in the noise. I used this filter with a kenwood TS 50. This nose cancelling speaker seems to work very well with the TS 50 radio. It did not seem to work so well with and old Icom 735. I am not certain if I have mark one or mark two.

dee yes peeeeeee  Time owned: 0 to 3 months
well i got this one for 100 pounds,well when i got it out of the box i thought i had been done.
it did not look like a hundred pounds worth and i thought well it will not work good by the look of it as it seemed very small.
Well i put it on and i was glad i was wrong it did work good cut the noise down, and was loud so i take my hat off to BHI..what a wonderful speaker.
It makes my yaesu ft 890 as good as the ft-950 and i dont need to get another radio.
I would recomend this speaker to anyone and yes its worth the 100 pounds hands down...jeff M6GLH

Good for satellites  Time owned: more than 12 months
I have been using the unit for 5 years now, connected to the audio output of my Icom 821H and 910H satellite transceivers. The unit was designed primarily for white noise reduction and allows me to clearly receive satellite signals from the horizon upwards, instead of 10 degrees and above before I had the unit.
The only minor gripe is the small headphone socket on the side of the unit.

almost unbelievable!  Time owned: more than 12 months

I was talked into buying one of these years ago, (despite my reservations about it) and for various reasons never got around to hooking it up to anything. (long story). Now I am getting back into ham radio and dug out my old IC-756Pro2, and set up a makeshift antenna to check it out. I found some signals buried in the hash, and the built-in DSP in the Icom didn't seem to help much. Then I connected the NES10-2 (Not sure if it's Mk1 or Mk2) and was astounded at the result. The noise floor just disappeared! And there was the signal; it was as if I had replaced the antenna! Every ham (or short wave listener) should have one of these...

Fantastic little box  Time owned: 0 to 3 months
I have had this speaker for a month or two now, and I was initially really wary of it so small, how could it do a good job. The initial setting was set at 6 and I found this too much processing when backed down to 4 or 5 maximum it was a great improvement this thing just eliminates noise including my RF nightmare (the kitchen fluorescent with electronic ballast). I am currently using it with a Lowe HF-225 Europa in a Pelican case with a gel cell and a RadioMaster PA-30 SWL antenna. This is the same as the GAP Hear It Now speaker but I bought mine from the UK $20 cheaper than buying it in the US from Universal including shipping. BTW I am located on the West Coast, get one you will not regret it or believe it

NONE BETTER  Time owned: 6 to 12 months
I have DSP on all of my rigs. I use this unit (GAP HEAR IT) after the internal DSP. It is amazing. I also have a AM COM DSP unit. It is also an excellent unit. Buy either and enjoy HFing. I use HF phone only. Probably the most used acc. in your shack. If you buy one and dont like it call me. Ill buy it. kj4dkt

Totally Gobsmacked!  Time owned: 0 to 3 months
This has got to be simply the most amazing 'gizmo' that I have ever bought for the shack!

I studied many reviews of this DSP filter before deciding to splurge nearly £100 on what, from the outside, looks the most expensive miniature extension speaker ever made. Scarcely bigger than two packets of cigarettes put back to back, when you first see it, you wonder if you have been well and truly conned! I can assure you that you haven't. It is absolutely phenomenal!

I live in a very noisy area near the South Coast of England. Noise and interferance from stations just across the channel on 80m has made the whole band pretty unworkable in the past. The entire solution to the problem is contained in this fantastic little box of tricks! My first 80m contact with it was on the Isle of Arran. With the filters bypassed, all I could hear was noise with the possibility of a signal in the background. Switch the filters in and suddenly there was the station as if it was just round the corner on VHF!

The rig I am using is an FT-897 which has built-in DSP filtering supposedly; when you switch the NES in and hear the complete and total difference, you begin to wonder!

If you treat yourself to just one new piece of equipment for you shack this year, make it this remarkable little black box. Youy'll never regret it!

good on the ears  Time owned: 3 to 6 months
This is a good thing,much better than the DSP in my ic718 and 706g I run the recieve audio through my sp20 icom speaker from the audio jack located in the most useless location on the side of the unit.Its a pitty that all the switches cant be located on one side only its a bit like a rubbics cube, anyway a good sounds comes from within. buy one

Every shack should have one!  Time owned: months
I bought this last year some time and put it in a box until I sorted out the shack. I purchased a TD480HX this week and was amazed with the receive DSP, NR, BC etc. I then dug this out and added it and started playing with the settings - I recommend changing the settings to find optimum for your own needs.

It really works! - not just reducing noise, but doing so without degrading signal - yes you can really hear what was below the noise level before. I was cynical (shame on me). I don't normally like ext. speakers, preferring the sound from the radio's own speaker, but adding this is no hardship - especially as I have many radios. It works with all of them.

As a cruel test, I now go looking for noise and QRM just to switch on what I call the "magic button". - surprised there are not more reviews on here, especially as we all know DSP doesn't always work on a lot of radios.

This certainly works!
