Given the processing power of the modern smart phone I wonder someone hasn't
developed and application to use regular ear pieces and sample sounds to set
it all up yourself.

Another comment. Hearing aids are very expensive in the US (I hear $5K-$6K
being typical), and I strongly suspect that it is the result of limited
distribution contracts between audiologists and the manufacturers to
protect the high markups. Costco's prices are about half that, but they
tend to be well rated, and W6OAT is VERY pleased with his. I also
saw/heard a piece on either NPR or PBS a month or so ago about a guy who
is developing a low cost hearing aid that he intends to sell in the $600
range. It's less sophisticated than the others, with fewer adjustments.
