It's been maybe 7 years ago, but I bought a Nady wireless mic 
that was designed for use with a Cam-corder.  It works on 191 
megs around the old tv channel 9 frequency.  It has a body pack 
with a small lavalier mic and a similar sized receiver that has 
an earphone output as well as a line out plug.  Both units run on 
standard 9 VDC batteries.  The output is pretty hot from the 
headphone plug and all plugs are standard 1/8 inch plugs.  The 
audio quality is quite good and the range is very adequate for 
most uses.  I used in to record our daughters wedding and it 
worked out great.  There's no EQ to shape the audio so you can't 
emphasize certain frequencies, but it well may help him.  I don't 
remember the model number, but you could call Nady at
Nady Electronics 510 652-2411.  They are   located in Emeryville 
in the east bay near San Francisco.  73, Jim WA6EKS

Subject: off topic help needed

I am trying to find a device for my uncle, to help him function 
with his
hearing loss.
We found that a wireless headset enabled him to hear and 
understand what is
on TV.  Why he wants to know what they are saying, I have no 
idea!

He asked if their was a similar device with a clip on microphone 
that could
be used to help him hear what is going on in a lecture or in 
temple.  So
basically we are looking for a 900 MHz transmitter with both line 
and mike
inputs.  I have tried a number of searches, but keep coming up 
with the
wrong stuff.
We are not trying to break the bank on this one either.  He has 
hearing aids
and can use them or not depending on what works.
The wireless headset is easy, but they keep wanting to put the 
mike on the
headset, and we need it at the other end of the room.
Thanks in advance.  It would be good, if the transmitter didn't
automatically turn off, unless the headset was digital, because 
their are
prayers of silent devotion, and we don't want to fill his ears 
with white
noise.
