Hi, can anyone advise me which headset is best for contesting ? I'm considering the Heil Proset or the Proset +. What do you think ? Is the Proset + worth the extra money ? Please let me know. 73 Jo

I have not used the Proset+ on the air, but did look closely at it this weekend in Dayton. The Proset+ is quite different from the regular proset. One major difference is that it includes both the HC

well, they sound wonderful, both TX and RX. Electrically fabulous. After two hours of the WPX SSB contest, however, I had to take them off because of the discomfort (ok, pain) they caused my ear lobe

I recently replaced my Heil Proset with a Pro-set Plus. The Plus seems to sound better on transmit (maybe the Proset was just getting old). It definitely seems to be more rugged. I haven't really not

Ditto....my Pro set kills my ears after about 6 hours. Have to go back to the lightweights with no ambient noise reduction. Don't know why someone can't just make a large enough form fitting headset.

I stopped by the Heil booth yesterday as it was being torn down. I asked Mr. Heil if he considered using noise reduction headphones. He became quite agitated and told me that the Pro Set+ was the bes

Tyler, Your focus on the noise reduction is a good one, but your other observation strikes a more familiar chord with me: "How anyone could be so serious about microphone audio and not give a darn ab

Quacks I find that a headset that has minimum contact with the ear is more desirable. I've been using an old Military style that was made to use in an aircraft high noise enviroment. Most of you have

My favorite headphone for (CW) contesting is a cheap (~$10-15) Sony set that weighs about an ounce and fits in the ear, not over. They are comfortable for long periods of times. They don't exclude ex

I quite agree, I tend to like my Sennheiser NR headphones the best. Low weight, good intelligibility, fatigue free. If the audio bandwidth is to wide it can always be narrowed outboard. Their is a re

Hi Barry The biggest problems with these type of headphones (and most others) is they are designed for music and stereo use. The highs and lows are WAY beyond what is needed for communication. I have

Hi Bob I find the same thing here. I had a small pair of Sony 'phones here and when I tried to use them it increased my bandwidth considerably. I could hear a lot more crud both up and down the band.
