headset adapter?

[[email protected]]

Hello,

I've been wondering if it's possible to adapt a cellphone handsfree
headset to aviation use. For my purposes I don't need noise reduction
so don't like wearing a full headset. I realize that the plugs need to
be adapted but just wondering if they need to be impedance matched and
if the mic will work. I've found a lot of info about using an aviation
headset with a cell phone but not the other way aound.

Thanks,
Al

For enough money, anything can be done.

Depending on the design of your radio, the earphones MAY work. The mic will
definitely NOT work.

I was afraid of that, thought there had to be a reason why no one was
doing it.

Thanks for the prompt reply.
