Thank you for sharing that. Do you use a neckloop with it? How does it connect?

I used direct audio input with my Phonak hearing aids back in the 90s. It was simple to use and it helped immensely. It looked like a black cigarette and plugged into my hearing aid with a cord. Yup, it showed. In the early 2000s along came a wireless mike that also worked well. I was teaching then and used it all the time. It was not yet BlueTooth.

Then came the Roger Microphone, which has been upgraded a few times.

I have to say that back in the day much of this equipment worked as well as some of the tech used today. It was much simpler to use than some devices today that use Bluetooth and require cell phones to control.

I have been getting quite a bit of feedback from seniors who are frustrated with all the bells and whistles that require some training to use now. Training that they are not getting from their providers. 'Stuff', if they have it, is sitting in boxes on dressers.

Hard to say it worked as well in the old days but it did and was less confusing and much easier to use. It showed when we were using it. Today there is such a focus on making hearing loss invisible, which just promotes the age-old stigmas that surround poor hearing. 🙁

So good to hear this old technology is working for you.
