The previous set I had incorporated a small fm reciever in an add on unit.
The reciver picked up a remote mic that you could set by the tv or the
podium to hear the speaker better. I used it in a couple classes I had
before I retired. I just wish they would make a blue tooth compatible aide.
Mine are BTE's that the VA buys because I went to sick call with tinnitus.
They told me the loud continuious noise I endured in the AF did not
contribute to my hearing loss but I went to sick call for tinitus so they
give me aides and 10% disability for that...I had to apply 3 times before
they gave in but I felt that being told I couldn't be issued hearing
protection as I didn't work on the flight line when I worked on the ends of
the runway was worth hasseling them about. It was way stupid loud with
F-4's scrambling over me. Sound pressure level so high it compresses your
chest..but I don't get hearing protection?? Looking back I shoulda had
somebudy buy some and send em to me.


Did you file on your own, or through the DAV?
