Dutch expat now hamradioactive from North East PA. I was first licensed in 1987 as PE1MBI but didn’t really become active until the late 90’s as KG4ECV and now KR1ST and PA1ST.
I’m interested in more things than can be explored in a single human lifetime.
Do not take anything I write as advice. I’m not an expert in anything.

@[email protected] Even though my wife would never hear me while I’m on the radio, I always prefer to use a headset. I never had a desk mic, exactly because of the space reason you mentioned. I once had a boom mic for a while that I rarely used, and didn’t bother to reinstall when we moved here.
@[email protected] That’s an awesome looking microphone! Is that a microphone you use regularly, or is it more for shack decoration, which I would completely understand?
@[email protected] Screw my diet. I need THIS!
Reminds me a bit of Dutch “saucijzenbroodjes”. 🤤
@[email protected] That reminds me of a restaurant in SC called Bowens Island. I bet @[email protected] knows that restaurant. I seem to remember that in the Oyster Room you would chuck the oyster shells on the floor that were collected and used for the driveway, but maybe that was at a different place, it has been a while. I remember that all the items on the menu used to start with “Big ol’ plate of…”.
@[email protected] 🤣 I hear ya! I never tried any of their Pro line stuff. Right now I’m using the Audio Technica BPHS1 headset. It has a nice very long non-coiIed cord. I used to use Sony MDR-7506 headphones with a ModMic boom mic attached to it for ham stuff that I really liked. I have way too many headphones, I’m afraid. For every type of listening I have a favorite set of cans. 😄 It’s rare that I don’t use headphones. That’s probably why my lil’ avatar has headphones on. 😄
