Oh no! Do any of them?

The unit comes complete with an "analogue" blue tooth dongle, so audio out
is no problem, but then I already have super Sennheiser ( ca) 800Mhz cans,
and I can hear my run frequency being stolen as I make coffee downstairs!
How the mic. can interface however I have no idea, that's why I need to talk
to somebody who knows about these things. Maplin have a USB blue tooth
dongle for under £15. How all the SSB ops. can stand being chained to the
rig by their Heil jobbies I have no idea, really prehistoric!


Actually I DO know what an iPod is, but still use a wind up gramophone to
play my Eddie Cochran 78s!  Jeez these youngsters know nuffink!
