Vent: My old dive helmet's comms were static for years, then a buddy in Seattle showed me a fix.
I was using the same Kirby Morgan 37 for about five years and the audio was always garbled, especially below 60 feet. He had me check the mic seal and replace the little foam windscreen inside, which was totally packed with salt crud. Has anyone else found a simple part that made a huge difference in comms clarity?

Ever think those little foam bits were just for surface noise? I always blamed my unit's old wiring for the crackle. Swapping that tiny windscreen made my old 17B sound brand new, like I'd been talking through a towel for years.

That foam probably got brittle from years of heat and dust buildup.
