President Lincoln II+ Can one improve sound (voice modulation)?

[Pipodeclown]

I bought a President Lincoln II+ some time ago to discover the 10-meter band. I do not seem to be able to make any QSOs, however. After checking several other issues, I started to question whether my calls are at all audiable for others. When checking on an SDR set up further away, it turned out that my voice modulation is realy horrible, no matter how I set the Mic Gain. My calls are very very difficult to understand. Does anyone know how to improve this? Thanks!

I dont think an SDR next to your radio is going to help because your just going to blow it out with to much signal.
Do you have a SWR meter with Modulation and a 50 ohm Dummy load ?
You could try a police scanner with (no antenna) ! that can do CB or 10 Meters go to FM mode On the Lincoln 2 and try that
just to hear your audio using a dummy load instead of your antenna ?
You need to be more in detail about not making contacts. What is your antenna ? What are you doing on 10 meters AM FM SSB?
Does Your Lincoln 2 have the 11 Meter Mod ?

Was the SDR antenna disconnected? Do you have a dummy load for the Lincoln? Base, mobile, power supply? We need more details.

Was the radio factory stock or has some "golden screwdriver" "peaked and tweaked" it?
