[TenTec] Headset Reccomendation

[Richards]

Shoot - let's not forget our friends at ...  you know... Ten-Tec... who 
sell a really good headset and it is a good value for the price. 
Apparently made with similar construction and parts as  HEIL's latest 
Proset 6 -  and apparently the same as sets by DataVid - you can be sure 
it will be durable and comfortable - as the other guys have based their 
success on it, also.

I recall JH of TT told us they selected their own mic and speaker 
elements - so parts is parts in some ways, but  NOT in all ways - as the 
mic element is not the same as the other outfits sell.   You can be sure 
it works well with TT radios as it was selected specifically to sound 
good thereon.  Other TT mics sound good on TT rigs, and this one did 
also.   I sold my example ONLY because I have so many others, and a 
TenTec maven wanted one, so I sold him mine at a discount, or else it 
would have remained in my stable.

The TenTec headset is super durable, plenty comfortable, and sounded 
really good on the air.  It has a bit heavy clamping force, but that can 
be adjusted to suit your proclivities and predilections.   Looks good too.

Yes... another good product from the Home Team.
