Heil Ham Radio has been
manufacturing specialized headsets, microphones, and equalization
products for the Amateur Radio market since 1982.
From the beginning, company founder Bob Heil knew that voice
articulation is key to ham radio, both for emergency use as well as for
the hobbyist. Heil Ham Radio’s headsets for ham radio
– from the Handi Talkie Headset to the Pro 7 – are
a result of that level of concern for clearly hearing and transmitting
the voice.

use in high-noise environments.

reduction and provide exceptional comfort.
A true dual-channel, stereo headset, the Pro 7 features an audio
balance control that allows the user to adjust the level of the left
earphone to match the right.
A unique phase-reversal switch greatly helps the listener
“dig out” weak signals.
The latest version of the Pro 7 features a monitor jack, which allows a
second operator to plug in headphones and monitor audio.
The flexible gooseneck mic boom on Pro 7s may be rotated for use on
either the right or left ear.
