I use my large one on my KPod. Since I rarely use the K4’s main tuning knob, 
it’s simply pleasurable to use for tuning.

[Elecraft] Elecraft CW Net Announcement

2022-12-17 Thread kevin via Elecraft

Good Evening,

   I had a sunny, chilly week.  Wind brought in clouds and shut off the 
power yesterday.  I expect some snow, but won't get much of it over the 
next week.  Christmas may or may not be white; often it is pouring rain.


   The sun is moderately active.  A few sunspots have had C and M class 
flares this week.  The ionosphere should be charged.  QSB will be 
interesting.


Please join us on (or near) :

14050 kHz at 2300z Sunday  (3 PM PST Sunday)
 7047 kHz at 0100z Monday  (5 PM PST Sunday)



73,
  Kevin.  KD5ONS






-






Vague dream-head lifted out of the ground,
And thing next most diffuse to cloud,
Not all your light tongues talking aloud
Could be profound.

But tree, I have seen you taken and tossed,
And if you have seen me when I slept,
You have seen me when I was taken and swept
And all but lost.

That day she put our heads together,
Fate had her imagination about her,
Your head so much concerned with outer,
Mine with inner, weather.

Yes. I tried on a set soon after they were introduced when a member of 
of our contest club arranged for their marketing guy to speak at a 
meeting. I found it to be an instrument of torture.


Several years later, after so many guys were raving about them, I gave 
them a second chance at a ham convention. They were just as 
uncomfortable the second time around.


That said, comfort level with headphones is a very personal thing, 
having to do with the size and shape of both our head and our ears. This 
product is pretty expensive, so I would urge anyone considering them to 
try them on first.

Re: [Elecraft] [K4][K3][K2] FS: David Clark H10-20 Aviation Headset

2022-12-17 Thread Fred Jensen
In addition to my regular duty as the Comm Officer at Galena AFS AK in 
1963, I also flew a DeHaviland L-20 "Beaver" for the CAP SAR missions.  
AK bush pilots never seemed to check the gas gauge before taking off so 
it was a couple of missions a month.  Not only was it deafening in 
flight, the oil filler pipe and dipstick came up between the seats 
providing, for your added comfort, a hot oil smell [and fine oil mist if 
you removed the cap to check the dipstick] in-flight.


The four headsets in the airplane were David Clark of 
uncertain vintage to which several attempts to cushion them with foam 
had been made, none of which were particularly successful.  The L-20 
cruised around 120 kts [it maxed at about 130 kts at triple the noise] 
and, since no place in AK is close to any other place in AK, I was deaf 
with a headache after every mission.

I have two sets of Bose aviation headsets... the A20 and the Profilght series 
2.  Both are second to none.  Active equalization and noise cancellation... 
perfect for contests/  loud backgrounds.  They also don't fall apart like some 
headsets made specifically for the ham market.  A bit pricy though.

Hello,

For Sale:  David Clark H10-20 Aviation Headset

It’s the perfect headset for the ham who uses headphones with a mic 
boom

attached.

Perfect for use in noisy environments—the cockpit of a 172 is 
LOUD—and

when you put these on, all is quiet. The microphone ignores background
sound, and you speak close to the mic. It’s an M-7A electret mic, 
which
does need bias; the K2 needs a 5.6K resistor (probably already there 
if

you use Elecraft MH2, 4 etc.) Tested with my K4 with bias turned on.

I had a problem with a David Clark as it emphases certian frequencies.
When I was moderating a net on the intertie it would disconnect the link
