My 8600 is about 8 months old. Had been working fine, but while monitoring heard what almost sounded like a rippling sound out of the external speaker. This was while monitoring in NFM mode with the 15 KHz. Same thing coming out of the internal speaker with the external unplugged. The sound is just "not right" any longer on my 8600. Prior to this sudden incident, when switching to the 50 KHz filter on a NFM signal, the sound would be nosier but had fidelity. Now the sound is very hollow and tinny in 50 khz mode.
So something definitely happened to this radio. This occurred suddenly during normal operation. Tried powering off and on, partial rest, full reset, reinstall firmware--- all to no available. NB and NR modes are normal.
Anyone else have an experience similar to this ? Thank you in advance for your input.
