Title: WHY DO PEOPLE NOT USE HEADPHONES Post by: bobkoi on August 11, 2009, 10:51:27 PM ON MANY A RALLY I HAVE SEEN AND HEARED MACHINES BLEEPING LOUDLY , WHY? I CAN UNDERSTAND IF THE HEADPHONES BREAK OR PERHAPS IS IT TO DO WITH COST?. HEADPHONES ADD GREATLY TO HELP WITH THE FINDS. WITHOUT I BELIEVE YOU LOOSE OUT ON THE FAINT SIGNALS.

Title: Re: WHY DO PEOPLE NOT USE HEADPHONES Post by: handyman [Alan} on August 12, 2009, 07:48:00 AM i prefer not to wear headphones as i like to be aware of whats going on in the surrounding countryside as well.
many a time i have witnessed the sounds of a fox rustling in the near undergrowth then to emerge close by, sometime with young, before disappearing. then there's the buzzards who frequent our region, what magnificent birds, plus of course the biggest advantage of all is to assit those newcomers to the hobby who have difficulty understanding the croaks and beeps. each to their own style, but most important of all is respect of each other and the environment in which we walk. cheers handyman Title: Re: WHY DO PEOPLE NOT USE HEADPHONES Post by: davtec (dave) on August 12, 2009, 08:18:28 AM funny me and my detecting buddy bob were only talking about this how
