Adding a mike to headsets Reply
by KV9U on June 30, 2009 Mail this to a friend!
Although I am not much of a contester, I sometimes dabble a bit and recently tried N1MM again and actually got it to work on Vista. The learning curve is pretty steep, but then again, sometimes non-intuitive methods can be much faster in effecting changes, e.g, bands, modes, etc.

If I operate on phone, I either use the rig's handmike or a fixed stand for my Heil PR781 and ICOM 756 Pro III. Not very convenient or practical for contesting.

It seem to recall that I once came a cross an article (QST?) on installing a clip on mike to an existing headset.

Has anyone had success with this approach or do you find that the best way is to buy a headset/mike combination?

The articles on interfacing computer or cellphone headset/mikes could be a low cost alternative, but are there any that are good enough for this kind of application?

I think there are several computer headsets that would work for this sort of thing. I say give them a try.
