I would appreciate some help on two issues I have not resolved.
The first is that living in a sunny part of the country with all the windows in
the coupe, the light makes my Garmin 296 very hard to read. I have it turned
up to maximum brightness, still I think I need an eybrow or shield to allow
better viewing of it.
The second problem is headsets. I never before used one (always had a hand
held mike and a speaker system), and they just don't seem to stay where they
belong. Wrestling the headset with one hand while trying with the other to
land can be a real pain, several times I was glad I had someone along to hold
the control while I done that, even then, the mike gets too far away from my
mouth, killing it when you don't need it dead, again making you a one handed
flyer. A couple of times on short final I just had to take it off and land with
it in the baggage compartment. Has anyone used a throat mike and an earbud type
setup?
