dr. Hans,

You must have me confused with someone else on the reflector as my "CHOSEN" headphone/boom mic
assembly (for K3)is available from "Elecraft" which is the (Heil ProSet IC) which I might add is
REALLY FABULOUS!!!

Regards,

Jim/nn6ee

Re: W2ENY Headphones

Mike:
I went to the W2ENY web pages. Are these headsets stereo? I could not determine from their info.

I bought the Warren Gregoire TR-2000, comfortable, mike sounds good BUT they are not stereo. So now they sit unused.
The K3 with its AFX need stereo headphones.

Re: W2ENY Headphones

Ty
I suspect you can split the headphones out to a stereo jack. I read a review
along these lines on Eham written by NZ0T. You might email him at
