Also, to you guys with hearing loss, hearing aid technology has improved by leaps and bounds the last 15 years or so. They are much smaller and have much more sophisticated circuitry - so they are better at picking up sounds you want to hear and canceling out annoying background noises. [Aids used to amplify all sounds so much that it was annoying for the user.] The smaller sizes make them less noticable if that is important to you (though some severe levels of loss may require a larger hearing aid with a custom fit earmold).
If you are not hearing well I really recommend that you go to an ENT doctor at a reputable medical facility (remember an audiologist is not a doctor). Your friends may better appreciate conversing with you if they do not have to repeat everything they say. Your wife, kids and grandkids will love you for it. Most hearing aids are purchased on at least a 30 day trial basis - so one can try them without obligating oneself. My FIL and my dad have worn them for years... and neither would choose to be without them now.
Last but not least... if you do try one - and it hurts your ear at a pressure point, go back and tell them because they can grind some of the shell off to make an earmold fit more comfortably. Otherwise it will cause a pressure-point sore in your ear.

To the newcomer that wants to get out and use the machine for field work, you may have already hit a major roadblock. That is the dreaded "proprietary hitch". With the exception of the
