[Elecraft] Cheap headphones

For an expedition of 10 + days with numerous 3-4 hour shifts round the 
clock, the Heil tends to get "heavy"...thus my experimenting with the 
CM500...very impressed and more comfortable. The ear coverage is better IMHO

It's best to fit each station with the same headset (CM500 in this case) so 
other ops not familiar with the K3 do not have to go into the K3's menus.
