[TenTec] binaural CW?

[Clark Savage Turner]

Any of you guys use the JPS NIR-12 for binaural CW reception and how well
does it approxmate diversity reception?

I had a Yaesu FT 1000 here in the shack for a week once (a guy wanted to
swap for my OMNI VI) and I used the dual receive with stereo headphones to
really dig out CW signals.  I am told the NIR-12 approximates this in its
binaural mode and just wonder if anyone has experience with it.

At a mere 47, I find my hearing is sometimes a problem, especially in the
CW range.  I am using lower tones these days, but find I need to change
the tone frequently to reorient my concentration on the CW signals during
QSO's.
