Is this the Heil Pro-Set, or something new?

I used the Heil headsets that surround the ear at W6EEN for a
multi-single and a multi-two phone contest (with boom mic.), getting
in about 30 hours out of the 48 of personal on-time and I was
pleasantly disposed to them.  I think I may purchase one or two pairs
for home use.
