Earphone in one earcup, microphone in the other earcup. Nothing sticking
out front, and no fiddling with that "magic spot" that isn't too weak or
overmodulated.



ITSM this was invented by Lear Seigler {sp} in the 70's. The pluses
were it didn't interfere with an O2/Smoke mask such as a HasMat/fire
fighter has on. It also found favor with SWAT-team types because you
could silenty communicate by sub-vocal grunts, etc...

I saw an amateur radio version a few years later; a friend used it
and got many strange looks re "talking to himself" in that pre-cellphone
era.

No idea how well it will work in a high-noise enviroment...
