Sounds like a good comparison, thanks.
Just to add further, I have the freewheel off the bike and basically can hear no clicking whatsoever. I really can't feel a ratchet of any type either. It does seem to lock up okay in the drive direction.
Guessing it's probably a quiet freewheel to start with that's probably had some heavier lube put on it. Just hoping to avoid @
