One thing. The ComPilot manual includes:

"Persons using medical devices such as pacemakers are not permitted to use this device."

Perhaps they're overly conservative, but worth a discussion with cardiologist first.

Likely is conservative. I've had a pacemaker for 7 years and my KPA500 at full power seems to have no effect on it -- nor on my Phonak hearing aid. Using a 5 W HT also has no effect.

I have been using the ComPilot for about 5-years. What a godsend. Never use the headphones at all except when I have to operate ssb, because my mic is on the headphones! ;-)

You can also use them on TV's, stereos, even on your PC, among many other devices.

I've wondered if there's a way to feed audio directly into them from the K3. I haven't found one yet, and I don't know if it would be better

I use a Phonak accessory called ComPilot that works with my Phonak hearing devices. It hangs around the neck - the "loop" is the antenna - to Bluetooth connect to my cell phone on my belt. It also has a 3.5 mm stereo jack that can bring audio directly to the hearing devices, again by Bluetooth. I'm sure that there are similar accessories for other
brands of hearing devices.
