hybrid meetings

[carriageclub]

 We have people attending  the meeting in person and on Zoom. With one computer in the room people on Zoom could not hear discussion from people attending the meeting very well. We got an external speaker to try to alieve the problem but it didn't work well (don't know if it was the speaker or just not enough power??). Maybe there is a speaker recommended for hybrid meetings?  people may be 6 to 10 feet way from the computer. Next time we brought 2 other computers to the meeting and signed onto the zoom meeting hoping that would help with sound issues. We then got feedback and echo when the volume was on which was very annoying.  Ideas and solutions would be very helpful. We want the hybrid meetings to continue.
