Folks, I will advize when I find a dealer. I usually bought them at the dayton hamfest. However, my usual booth wasn't there this year. I have a number for a dealer in new york, will call and confirm everything monday, then post to the list. Also, John, I agree with you. I've never found earbuds worth a darn. They either don't stay in, or hurt like hell when they do. I'll post tomorrow evening, provided the world doesn't fall apart at the job tomorrow. 73 At 6/3/2007, you wrote: >Hi Gary; > >Where is this headset available from? > >Also, ear buds are very comfortable along with the SMC-34 speakermic. > >73 De Anthony W2AJV >[log in to unmask] >ECHOLINK NODE NUMBER: 74389 > >----- Original Message ----- >From: "Gary Lee" <[log in to unmask]> >To: <[log in to unmask]> >Sent: Sunday, June 03, 2007 9:25 AM >Subject: [BLIND-HAMS] headset for thf-6 > > > > My favorite headset for the f6 is the dm2-kenwood from workman > > electronics. > > > > This is a set consisting of a small speaker about the size of a quarter. > > This is fixed in a molded frame which hangs on the ear.
