I'm using a hybrid Radio Shack headset/BM-10 boom, and the only difficulty
I've had with it is some mechanical feedback between headsets and boom mike
if I set the audio gain too high.  The HC-4 element is important, though --
there are a lot of boom mike/headset units out there right now that could
be retrofitted, probably.  Could be tough on Heil's markup on the complete
headsets!
