CM-500 headphones

William Carver
Dick, are those headphones stereo? I haven't seen anything but for a
long time, but the website does not specifically say they are stereo.

Good point...

http://www.yamaha.com/yamahavgn/CDA/ContentDetail/ModelSeriesDetail.html?CNTID=37726

also says that the cord is 9" (inches) - seems to completely rule out
plugging into the rear jacks on the K3, and make operating somewhat
uncomfortable when plugged in the front ;)

The website states:

"The CM500 includes up to nine feet of cord, a 1/8" miniphone plug and a
 1/4" TRS phone adaptor for added flexibility".

Given the fact that a TRS plug is used my guess is that they are stereo
headphones.

They are stereo and the cords are actually too long.  I've got them wadded up behind the K3.

What is the preferred push to talk switch to go with such an
arrangement?  Are there any recommended footswitches?

I use VOX for all SSB operation, including contesting. It's very
easy to adjust K3 VOX settings to work quite well.

A switch is a switch... it comes down to comfort and durability...
many discussions on the topic here:

http://n2.nabble.com/forum/Search.jtp?forum=365791&local=y&query=footswitch

I have a couple of different Heil's here, and they work fine for me...

Dick,
While a broadcaster - I usually purchased foot switches from either box
houses like B&H or music stores for guitar amp control.
They should be in the $15 range with a cord & 1/4" phone plug.

What is the preferred push to talk switch to go with such an
arrangement?  Are there any recommended footswitches?

I have two "Treadlites" by Linemaster Switch Corporation
that have been in constant use for 20+ years.  They're held
in place by double-sided tape. (:-)
