[Elecraft] Headset

[Gary K9GS]

I second that John.  I bought one 2+ years ago.  It arrived days before 
CQWW CW.  I wore them all weekend and never a complaint. One of the 
really cool things is that they come with a parts list.  If you ever 
have to repair them they sell replacement parts.

I've never looked back.
