There are lots of mics out there that do the same thing, anything to look out for as far as good quality and such?

Re: Coms
I've chewed through half a dozen replica headsets/boom mics/push to talks. Pryme makes some good commercial grade headsets/PTT combos in the $75 range. Alternatively, $10-20 eBay speakermics work fine and don't get in the way of the rest of your gear.

Re: Coms
I use a $15 single ear piece, in-line mic from radio shack. other than the ear piece cover always getting lost, its worked pretty well.

Re: Coms
Many speaker mics allow you to connect an earpiece to them in case you don't want radio chatter broadcasting where everyone can hear it.

Re: Coms
On the note of coms, does anyone recommend a certain radio that I could use a PTT on? I need to invest in one before TDC2.

Re: Coms
well i did the research on radios and i went with the puxing 888k but that was only because i was looking for the duel channel feature which allows you to listen to 2 channels at the same time in your headset. it was 75 dollars and i love the radio and its worth every penny. if you dont want to spend that much there are alot of good radios you can buy out there. my recommendation is to get a programmable radio so you can set a private channel for you and your team so you dont have to listen to all the senseless banter from players on the field. baofeng makes good radios at a more affordable price a popular one is the baofeng-5vr5 which runs about 40 dollars. i have several friend that run this radio and they love it. a good place to look is amazon. ali-babba is another good place and that is where i bought mine. here is a link for you to start your research http://www.alibaba.com/showroom/pc-prog ... radio.html i for aircross i got the puxing 2xr which was about 30 dollars and garrett and the guys love em they dont have the duel channel feature but they are programable and you can set private channelsMad Magpul wrote:On the note of coms, does anyone recommend a certain radio that I could use a PTT on?

Re: Coms
i ran with a guy at faded giant that had that same headset and he liked it. the nice feature was it drowns out loud noises such as a thunder b. me myself i didnt want to spend that much on a headset since i spent 75 on my radio. i went with the bravo elite II which i really like here is a link: http://www.airsoftjunkiez.com/communica ... set-black/thebutnugget wrote:There are lots of mics out there that do the same thing, anything to look out for as far as good quality and such?

Re: Coms
Do you have a team or do you want to chat with the normal world? Because if you are on a team, it would be worth grabbing a 'high end' radio like Mojo suggested (id go Wouxon but whatevs) If not, any midlands radio will put you on the admin channel and team channel, and allow SO much easier swapping between the normal channels players are on.Mad Magpul wrote:On the note of coms, does anyone recommend a certain radio that I could use a PTT on?

Re: Coms
Thanks a BUNCH Mojo. This probably cut my research time in half. And yea Felix I did plan on not wanting to listen to the rest of the world but rather to my team (I meant to put that I wanted private channels but forgot. Sorry).
I also would like to know the answer to this.Romba wrote:When you are on two channels, do you have two different buttons, one to talk to each channel? Or do both channels hear what you say?

Re: Coms
Regular teamnewb channel = endless chatter and call button pressing. Reason enough to never buy a radio unless you are on a team with private channels.
Re: Coms
You monitor both channels and broadcast on the one of your choosing.

Re: Coms
You listen to both channels, but only transmit on the one selected. The radio has the feature built in to switch to the other channel you're monitoring so you can transmit on that one.
