[QUOTE="loamer, post: 41215, member: 981"] Just one thing with the speaker - in my case, windy days in the bush can have an effect along the lines of the noise of the trees and the wind can mask faint threashold signals, I found myself leaning towards the speaker to try and pick up the faint noises. I also found that ground noise got blurred with target responses - it was hard to differentiate with the wind noise. I always carry a set of good headphones (Koss) in my day-pack in case the wind picks up too much. Had these sort of problems on the weekend in high winds - switched to the headphones and all was good. I have trialled the under chin ear plugs - in my case a failure - I am too tall too tall, leads too fragile, required an adaptor etc. failed test. Apart from that minor issue, the speaker will work fine for the day and not draw too much extra power and I believe they cut down on ear fatigue a lot. [/QUOTE]
