The other reader, reading in yesterdays blog about a 'remote microphone', asked for an explanation. It's a mic that is not physically connected to the hearing aids but transmits directly to them. With some previous aids I had one. Riding in the backseat of a car while the front seat passenger held it I was able to hear front seat speech clearly. In a noisy restaurant my dinner companion can clip it to his tie and I will easily hear his speech.
The audiologist said it also works to transmit the sound from a TV. The current device I have for transmitting that sound has one serious drawback. When it is connected the TV cannot be muted, consequently I seldom use it. Watching athletics on TV, I always mute the sound because I find the announcers more annoying than helpful.
