I need some monaural headphones?

Any recommended models?


I highly recommend Radio Shack's "Racing Headphone" (part number 330-1198) if
you are looking for a monaural, lightweight headphone that completely covers
your ears. I bought a set after reading reviews on eHam.com and elsewhere,
and have been very pleased with them. I use them with my Icom R75 and they
sound great. They come with a 1/8 inch monaural plug, so you may have to, as
I did, get an adapter plug if your radio uses a 1/4 inch headphone jack. The
only (slight) downside is that the coiled headphone cord is a bit short if you
are going to be sitting back some distance from your radio (in which case,
you'll have to buy or make a headphone extension cord). If there aren't Radio
Shack stores in Canada, the headphones are available over the web:

Here's the link to the eHam reviews in case you're interested:
