[Elecraft] Noise Reduction headsets (was Heil...)

Interesting thot. I wonder if the lack of side tone is partially responsible
for many cell phone users to raise their voices. I don't recall hearing most
folks talk so loudly into desk phones.

Shouting into the mic might also mean the side tone could be adjusted
differently.  The higher the attenuation of your own voice back into your
ear becomes, the more the brain tells you to raise your voice so you can
hear yourself.  The telephone people worked this out 100 years ago.
