I am looking for recommendations for headsets with boom microphones. I will
use them with my Kenwood TS450 and my Yaesu FT530. I would like to find one
with one earpiece for the FT530, and two earpieces for the TS450. I have
seen several inexpensive ones that were attached to some Radio Shack walkie
talkies, and one that came with a sound blaster type board, but I don't know
of a source for these. I have also heard of an expensive brand called Heil.
Are the Heil ones worth the cost, and does anyone have a phone number for
the Heil company so that I can get a catalog.
Thanks for the help,

Hello. I have the following amateur radio equipment for sale:
Swan Cygnet 270B 10-80 mtr. transceiver
Hethkit HM-2140 Dual HF Wattmeter
10 meter dipole antenna
Misc. books, manuals, and magazines.
All of the equipment is in perfect working condition. I was into
amateur radio for a few years but I have lost interest in it. This
is a good set-up for a beginner. $400 (+shipping)
Please e-mail me if interested since I don't read this newsgroup
very often. Thanks...

I agree with Scott. I had the FT-470 when it first came out and
replaced it with the 530 when it was introduced last year. It is a
wonderful radio and well worth the extra $125. As a matter of fact,
that is NOT a good deal even! I sold my FT-470 with speaker mic, extra
batteries, dc pack and case for $250. The Ft-530 cost me $409 out the
door. last year at Dayton they were briefly available for $375 at a
couple dealers.
