[CQ-Contest] Heil headphone pads

[Edward Sawyer]

In my opinion, Heil headsets have always sounded wonderful but never been comfortable.  Going back 30 years.

All of my contesting headsets are Heil.  The best by far is the new Pro 7.
I tried a Radiosport headset recently that belongs to a friend who was a referee at WRTC 2018.  It felt better than any Heil I have ever worn.

This topic is very surprising because I thought the Heil headsets were some of the best around, I use a gaming headset and I get compliments on my audio and I can were the headphones for long periods of time....like for a contest without any problem..
