[UK-CONTEST] Heil Headset Question

[Alex GM3ZBE]

The Maplin BM10 seems to be obsolete on the web site now.
The instructions which came with my Heil PRO-SET Plus mentioned the bit
about bending the headband.
I always adjust my headphone headbands so that they only just prevent them
from moving if I lean forward, reducing the ear pressure to virtually
nothing.  I agree about the cloth covers, I found them hot and
uncomfortable.

I agree, I like the BM10. I cannot wear the ProSet for more than 2 or 3
hours. However, I did ask Bob Heil about this at Leicester and he said that
it is possible (and recommended) to bend the main headset strap (on the
ProSet) so that it becomes more comfortable. I have also tried these socks
or boots that you can buy to cover the earphones and they just make them
hotter and more uncomfortable

FWIW

Don't forget the BM10 - I've used one for years, have tried the others but
found them uncomfortable for serious contest sessions (CQWW, WAE etc..).
About half the price of the pro-set too!

They appear every-so-often on Ebay, so grab yourself a bargain!
