Hmmm...might give that a try...
One of my future projects is to incorporate a neck loop (an inductive amplified loop one wears around the neck) that is made to be used by tele coils in hearing aids. Mine also has a little condenser mic built in. I want to be able to plug in the loop to tv's, telephones, rigs or whatever has an audio jack. It already works very well with either my hf rigs....will do some work with getting it to be used as a rig's mic with a ptt switch. Have tried any mumber of headphones..but they, with the exception of my koss quiet zone noise cancelling headphones, they just don't work for me....can't use them with the aids as the pressure from the ear muffs really hurt my ears with the aids in. If I try to use the headphones without the aids, then have to crank the volume up so high that I get headaches after a while. The Koss's are a lot better in that respect.... Guess could incorporate a condenser mic and boom with the Koss headphones.... Wonder how well those wireless headphones work? Anyone? Any of them come with a mic? ----- Original Message ----- From: "Wayne Whitman" <wwhitman@fastmail.fm>

I am very hearing imparied...wear hearing aids in both ears, and have
both
the omni vi plus upgraded to option 3 and the omni 7.

Denton, you might try the MFJ 618 dual channel speech intelligibility
enhancer.
Essentially, it's a 4 band equalizer for your receive audio.
I don't wear hearing aids yet (but I should) and it makes a big
difference using it with my Omni VI+.
