Have you folks ever thought of squelching? I squelch whiners, *****ers, and yakkers on a regular basis. The blathering, whining & complaining does get annoying. Rather than turning it down, how about a simple on/off switch? If the only important thing is squaddie talk, this would be an option. Of course you might miss that one important chunk of info that a non-squad pilot is relaying to you.
