Dear Folks:
I appreciate all of the recommendations. One of the reasons why I was
considering the Heil mikes is that I already have a pair of nice
headphones on the K3s that are comfortable to wear for hours, though
they don't have a boom mike. I've got a Heil boom mike (Pro-7) set for
my VHF/UHF radio, and though it works well, it's too heavy for long-term
use (the satellite QSO's I make with it are all short-lived by nature).
Thus, I was looking for something that I could use with the current
headphones that I use for my CW work.
The recommendation that kept coming back multiple times was the Yamaha
CM 500, and what caught my eye is that everyone said that the headphones
are comfortable for hours on end (it's not unusual for me to have a plus
60 minute CW ragchew).
NK7I's link led me to the Amazon link for the CM 500, and with a coupon,
I was able to order it for just under $54. At that price, it's hard to
not give it a try. And I will look up K9YC's recommendations for TX EQ
settings.
Thanks to all for your help. I hope to see you on the bands regardless
of the mode (CW rules!).
73 de Bernie, KF0QS
