 I have fixed two broken Heil headsets with copious amount of JB weld. Looks like ... well anyway that worked well. They never broke again at those spot. 

I bought an aviation headset dirt cheap at an estate sale and converted it for ham usage. That thing will never fail.

 The boom mic on my CM-500 is now flopping around held only by 
the signal wire.

Any ideas about how to reattach it?

What are the best replacement headsets these days. Someone said 
that the CM-500 has changed for the worse in the last few years.

Any other advice?
