I have been working as electronic and comunications technician for the government for 18 years now and one of my jobs has been installing Motorola radios to the fire dept trucks and all of them use as internal intercom and radio interface as well the famous Dave Clark green color headsets with boom mic and certainly they are a perfect seal,once in your head you will hear almost nothing around you,our fire fighters love them specially when they have to drive opening the traffic with the very loud 100W siren in front of the truck,those are real loud but with the Dave Clarck headset that siren is very weak in your ears BUT I agree they are so heavy and unconfortable that you will not be able to work a contest or even dxing for few hours,they are designed for short runs from the Fire station to the site in problems, Don't buy them,you will lose your money.

Considered a Dave Clark headset, but too expensive and seemed to start a whole new thread about best headset...for Pilots! I ordered and have just received direct from USA the Extreme Isolation EX-29 headphones and have to say I'm very pleased with them. Excellent sensitivity, with the K3, good fidelity and completely blocks my Amplifier and PC fan noise. Great ! 73, Deni F5VJC K3 325 Bob - W0GI wrote: > Put some David Clarks on your head.
