well, they sound wonderful, both TX and RX. Electrically fabulous.

After two hours of the WPX SSB contest, however, I had to take them off 
because of the discomfort (ok, pain) they caused my ear lobes - and went 
back to my trusty Pro Micro set with the same HC4 element.

It may be that they didn't fit me because of my overly large head, or 
because my glasses get mashed into the side of my head by large ear pads, or 
both.

Try them on for a while before you buy!

hope this helps! - 73 - jeff wk6i
