The mic does move to full vertical to get it out of the way.

Most operation here is CW & digital, and sometimes SSB, so I need
to be
able to move the mic up and out of the way when not needed. Can
any
SB45 users tell me if the mic can be moved to a full vertical
position?
I have looked at pictures, but can't tell how far it will move.
Tnx & 73,

I promised an update on long-term comfort after the RTTY
Roundup
contest, so this is it. I wore this headset for two 12 hour
contest
sessions this past weekend, and found its comfort equal to or
better
than the Yamaha CM-500, which most everyone, including myself,
seems to
think is very good. There is a sweet spot in the headphone
height
adjustment, where equal pressure is applied above and below the
ears,
and it feels really super at that point, even for an eyeglass
wearer
like myself. My ears didn't get as hot as with the CM-500, and
the
SB-45 headband has nice soft padding that didn't irritate the
top of my
bald head like the CM-500 sometimes does.
Overall, I think the SB-45 is equal to or better than the
CM-500, at
about half the price.
