Whistler scanner speaker suggestions

[bailagent67]

I have a handheld Whistler digital police scanner. I received my extension speaker today from Amazon.

It's works, but not very loud. Pretty much have to struggle to hear it. It's right over my head on the visor.

Any suggestions or tips?

Not sure what Whistler handheld you're using, but for my PSR-800 that was upgraded by Whistler to a WS1080, I used a Valor amplified speaker mic. It has an internal battery that gives you very loud sound without distortion.

You need an amplified speaker. The jack is for headphones so the audio is purposely attenuated.

that would just be an extension speaker, you really want an amplified one.
this is one that has its own power.

Thank You. I'll order a different one.
