[Elecraft] [K3] Hearing aids, meet K3

[Bob W7AVK]

Most of the recent Hearing Aids have something called T Coil or similar 
feature.  Very popular in Europe where folks gather like churches, etc. 
its essentially an inductive pickup.   The idea being a wire loop is run 
around the room parameter and a few watts of audio is pumped through 
it.  Any hearing aid with T Coil inside the loop will pickup the audio 
by induction.

I haven't tired it yet but was thinking of running a loop or coil around 
the operating desk and feed it with a couple audio watts via a small 
amplifier module and the K3 line out.   Would be interested in hearing 
any results.

BTW - A Google will get you lots of T Coil hits.
