Just bought one at lunch... Came up as 9.95 on the computer... I was a bit
confused and staring at the atm maching when she pointed out where to slide my
card (i use it a million times a month)... So I told her I was hesitating
because I thought it was 14.95. She eventually convinced me 9.95 was ok... The
only price on them was 14.95.. Maybe they are on sale. Compter error ??..

Subject: [SECC] CVS Noise Canceling Earphones
There has been a fair amount of chatter on the PVRC reflector the past few
days regarding some nice earphones - I thought I would pass along the info.
CVS stores have noise canceling earphones for $15. Quite a few PVRCers have
bought them and claimed they sounded about as good as their Heil Prosets. I
picked one up here in Woodstock yesterday - there were eight on the shelf -
so finding these things seems easy enough.
My very first impression was they were really cheaply made - they are only
$15. After using them for a while however - I am very impressed. They also
fold up much smaller than Heil phone - a plus for traveling. They would be
good for using on air liners in addition to HR.
For anyone who has not used noise canceling phones in HR before - they
really can help. The first test is to put them on in your ham shack
connected to nothing, then throw the switch and listen to the background
disappear. The things really work --
