[Elecraft] Noise cancelling headphones

[Mark Goldberg]

Amazon shows the HP8000 available from third party sellers at wildly
varying prices. Sometimes they are bad or fake unfortunately. They claim
new, but don't have enough info listed to tell if it meets your criteria.

As far as I know, aviation headsets will not have wireless for the main
headset or microphone as it is not reliable enough to be certifiable. They
will have auxiliary bluetooth inputs for entertainment.

I do not know anything that meets your criteria.

Good luck in your search,
