That's pretty cool.   While I  don't know what other  gear in the  shack 
you may have  that interfaces with the hampod, the extra $800 or so for 
the Green Heron and Hampod combo  seems a bit much just to get speech 
on a rotor.

Are you Alan's son by any chance?  Just kidding.  Enjoy, hope to see you 
on the air sometime.
