Looking for tips for headphone types for K3, CW only, so need 1/4 inch stereo jack. Object is to isolate from ambient noise in the shack, such as relay clatter from 1K-FA amp when keying. Been using

Hi Chuck, I am using a pair of Koss KO.727s headphones. They work very nice with my K3 and my Yaesu FT920 and FT1000. I have been using them for years and like them very well. I see that the Koss KO.

I like my QC-15 noise cancelling headphones! Worth the money and they DO cancel-out fan noise from the K3 and my KW amp. I don't have any clacking relays when I key, so I can't comment on that. I use

I have a pair of Sony noise cancelling phones. Once you try NC phones, you will never go back to conventional ones. Now if we could just get someone to make a set with a microphone. But you asked abo

Some headphone can isolate noise very well. I like the Sennheiser HD280 , it provide 36db isolation, but the best one I have is the MC5 from Etymotic ear plug that can reach 42 db isolation. 73' JC N

Chuck - Ive been very pleased with Heil ProSets for both CW and SSB. If you can, borrow the recommended models to see how you like them. Whats best is always going to be subjective just because there

To get a switchable microphone take say a Heil BM-10, remove the pivot from the headphones, and simply Velcro it to any preferred head phones. Doug I wasn't born in Saskatchewan, but I got here as so

I have experience with various Alphas including my current 8410. Their relays *are* loud. Noise cancelling headsets can take that way down. As to going to diodes to get rid of relay clang, that is an

Ditto on the Sony MDR-7506.  Have been using them for quite a while.   Not sure why they were my choice but generally I do quite a bit of research before buying.Regards,Jim/k2hn _________________ Top

The KPA500 has substantially less field operating time compared with the Alpha 86/89/87A series. After checking this evening, apparently Elecraft doesn't post schematics of their amplifier. It would

I suggest you contact Elecraft directly. We broke down two KPA500's during the 2016 CQWW 160 on its PTT line, probably due to our own failing PTT setup. E-mailed Elecraft for repair instructions; pro

I own or have tried them all. For high level of isolation plus non-fatiguing full fidelity sound, go for the Beyerdynamic DT770M. They are significantly more isolating than the other phones mentioned

Chuck, I use Bose QC25 active noise cancelling headsets. They are very comfortable to wear for hours in a contest, much more comfortable than any DX headset I have tried. They are better mechanical q
