Hi All,
I use a Talkabout fr60. What I want to know is what kind of hands free system do you use? A bud ear system or an over the ear and mic system or a clip on mic.
I am buying one soon and wondered what you have had the most luck with.
Thanks

I never had much luck with the ear clip/bud/mic combos. They always seem to "pop out" of my ear with any movement.

I've had decent luck with a Jabra-style silicone ear piece and seperate remote mic mounted in front of my mouth on the mask, with a PTT button. A thick piece of foam mounted to the mask next to my ear keeps the ear piece in place.

I've heard good things from the ear piece/mic combo that uses inner ear vibration through the ear piece to transmit sound, but I can't justify the cost.

i had a jabra all-in-one handsfree (the mike in the earpiece) and it worked like a champ until i accidentally ripped the earpiece off. when my friends get back into playing i will bother to buy a new one.
