Hi Lee, Thanks for the info for everyone. Where did you get the Trimm headsets? Probably not available any more.... <GRIN>

Sidetone audio is tinny. Sounds like a set of old headphones I had with a
metal diaphragm.  Very fatiguing to listen to.


Interesting! I have about a dozen different headsets around here from aircraft style to Koss stereo HiFi, various types from the FM broadcast station and two pairs of Trimm Professionals, the ones with a metal diaphragm. Guess which I prefer on CW? Yep, the Trimm's. They have a nice clean, crisp sound unmatched by all the others. Very uncomfortable though until I found some Radio Shack foam pads that fit perfectly.

Just goes to show how different our preferences are and what challenges equipment designers have in designing equipment that works well for all users. A lot more difficult
job than we might think.

Everyone have a nice Memorial Day and please remember and honor those who gave
their lives that the rest of us could be free.

73,
