Guys, I need to buy a Throat Mic and an earphone/earpiece, if you know of a headset that is half decent, tell me too. I really need one for an exercise, the sooner the better. Oh, I forgot to say, if you know prices, fantastic, put the product name and the price down, if you know web link that can give me a look at the product, put them down too!

Cheers,
Phantom

Found an ad for Radio Shack had a throat mike for around $20.Ear buds are everywhere (last time I looked...must be for those "family" radios).Just remember,buy cheap,buy twice.I don't usually go by that,but I work on the local Homecoming parade route,we use those cheapie "family" radios,and they pick up so much crap it isn't funny.Not good when you're trying to find something out for a person and you get truck drivin' chatter on some numb nut kid on his daddy's HAM.

Not sure if this will be any help or not, but this company does ship worldwide. Some of my colleagues have used this company in the past to purchase quality kit to replace the cheap stuff we are issued with, and they speak highly of the company.

Anorak fact - the helicopter and accompanying police cars in the middle of the collage picture are from my force.
