Yes. Before I left Chicago about 5 years ago, I bought five assorted Plantronics headsets in different configurations. I suspect they were someone's free samples. I think I paid a total of $20 for the lot. I subsequently found them for sale at Fry's for about $30 each. I made up connector adapters to use them with a all the ham rigs I then owned (a K2, Omni V, TS850, and IC746) and a computer for VOIP. The adapters included a resistor from V+ to bias the electret. All of them sounded good and produced competitive contest audio with all of the rigs and the computer. 73, Jim Brown K9YC ______________________________________________________________ Elecraft mailing list Home: http://mailman.qth.net/mailman/listinfo/elecraft Help: http://mailman.qth.net/mmfaq.htm Post: mailto:Elecraft@mailman.qth.net This list hosted by: http://www.qsl.net Please help support this email list: http://www.qsl.net/donate.html
