Hello Fred;

I did not find much information on the web about using aviation headsets on
ham radios.   However if you search for using these headsets with gamming
computers, there is a lot more information.

Eventually I found the following information.

I was surprised how much I like the noise cancellation and the quality of
the sound.  I have a window fan running in my shack in the summer. 

I found the following adapter that worked for my KX3 and a Bose Aviation
headset.  At least for my headset the noise cancelation is only the
earphones not the microphone.

I did find a schematic on the web but never tried to build it.

Just curious ... I inherited a David Clark noise cancelling aviation
headset/mic from a neighbor who was a US Forest Service pilot.  I've never
tried it, the connector is strange.
