Re: [Elecraft] Ear Buds with Microphone

I bought the parts to make the adapter cable to use my cell-phone earbuds on my KX2. I haven't built it yet. I suspect that your voice won't be quite as full and up-front with the earbuds mic vs. some other, but if you really need to travel light, it should work. On 10/11/17 21:22 PM,

2017-10-11 Thread marvwheeler
Is anyone using ear buds with a microphone with their kx3? I am contemplating buying earbuds and wondered if it would be wise to include a microphone. If so recommendation of brands and models known to work well would be appreciated. Thanks, Marv KG7V

Thanks to all who replied regarding using OSHA ear plugs on ear buds to keep them in. Not sure why I couldn't find it in the archives ... short attention span while searching, I guess. 73, Fred K6DGW Auburn CA CM98lw ___ Elecraft mailing list Post

I know this has been discussed on the reflector, but I can't find it in the archives after a bit of searching. I have the RS equivalent of the Koss Ear Plugs which work great on my KX1 for an old guy who can't hear any more. However, I can't get them into my ears so they'll stay for any length

Hi Rich... They were the Sony earbuds 120 dB/mW. I couldn't find the exact one, so I bought the Sony MDR-EX51LP (100dB/mW). Plenty loud and they are the most comfortable earbuds ever. Only thing I find, you can hear your own breathing if signals are weak, and if you take you eyes off the cord,

I agree that The Plug by Koss are acceptable earbuds. They are rated at 110 db. I wear hearing aids, so need the best I can find. If anyone knows about any earbuds better than the Koss ones, I'd appreciate hearing about it. (Pun intended.) BTW, worked Antarctica from Indianapolis on the KX1

The Plug by Koss gives me all the sound I can stand. Great for portable work since they are very small. Jimmy, AE4DT [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Has anyone done any experimenting with various ear-buds? Which model brand is the most sensitive and produces the most volume? 73, Don WA9TGT

Don, there is a sensitivity rating on the better quality earbuds packages. Some of the Sony models are quite efficient among others. The cheap unlisted specs models vary all over the place. Plus, the insulation gets stiff on the Dollar store brands. 72, Stuart K5KVH

Don, I have both Sony earbuds and The Plug by Koss. The Sony’s may have slightly higher mfg. reported sensitivity, but the The Plug has a sound channel that goes deeper into the ear. The Plug has silicone buds that seal out ambient noise. The Sony’s don’t seal. There used to be a website
