The headset i've got at the moment is imho, the best one available at the moment, i would like to trial the american style "in ear" type but have minor reservations about not having "split comms".

The one i use is basically an air trafficafied version of the Sennheiser used by most airline aircrew these days. It is lightweight, has a splittable headband so will fit any head, has moveable ear pieces so you can push one back off you ear for face to face communication if you wish, has a handhelp ptt a good distance from the headset and a long lead for good freedom of movement. It grips the head with just the right amount of presure so that it doesn't give you a headacke after 2 hours or fall off if you lean forward!! The accoustics are also excellent and Rx and Tx quality are superb. It is perfect for both ADC and APR that i do.Why they aren't more prevailent i don't know.

No thats not true i do know...during my NATS days i suggested exactly such a headset to the company that supplied NATS with its headsets and what did i get...a bo*%@king for suggesting that what they already supplied wasn't ideal!! - nuff said

And for the Mod' -I have no connection with any of the companies i have mentioned or infered
