Hello, I was wondering if anybody could answer this curious question I have.
I listen to an EMS station, Cliffside Park EMS in New Jersey, I should also mention that I work as an EMT for this station as well. When I have my scanner on at home and recording, I can hear my dispatcher fine but I cannot hear myself when I'm on the ambulance, for some reason it's very quiet and often hardly audible. I don't hear any static or any interference that can cause issues for my scanner in receiving radio transmissions from the ambulance.
The ambulances do not transmit on a different frequency or channel from that of dispatch we're all on the same one, so I don't really understand why I can't hear myself well or even, say, at all at times. Would this be a reception issue or what else could it possibly be? I've included an audio sample to illustrate what I mean. Please let you're not able to access it. Just in case anybody's wondering, "CPA" stands for Cliffside Park Ambulance.
Thanks in advance.
