This happened to me and it did both ways. 1. I could hear, others could not hear me.2.
They could hear, but I could not hear them.
A lot of mics are not made very well man..I mean you can can buy those turtle beaches, but just regular mics need to be made better.
Sometimes you may find your mic will start working as mine did, but it usually indicates an internal failure and you need a new one. If you say others can hear you, but you can not hear them then you could turn the speakers on. You could hear them through your tv.
This is what I did.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
