New chest microphone and single ear headphone

[Yuri D.]

Just got this one in yesterday:

The reverse shows the clip used to attach to the tunic:

Here is the heavy-duty connector for plugging into the intercom system of the vehicle:

The plug for the headphone. Notice the wire connectors on the sides of the plug. This allowed the headphone to be attached to virtually any sound source, bypassing the plug that was only compatible with this microphone.

Here is a closeup of the headphone and the furry pad for the other side of the head.

Does anyone have a similar item in their collection?

Unfortunately nothing similar here /yet/, but can say that yours is just great!!! But in what vehicle was it used? If in a tank, didn't the mike horn collect too much noise from around?

[J Melvin]

Yuri, nice set. I don't have either. You'll see the microphone on occasion for sale on ebay. I've never seen the headset with it, though.

[Yuri D.]

What's interesting is that there is another female receptacle on the other side of the microphone that accepts the plug for another headset, so someone else can be listening to the conversation taking place.

Digging out an old thread...

Does anyone have a similar item in their collection?

Yuri

Not identical but similar in a way : the single earphone is here coupled to a throat mike. I already had the remark that the throat mike was a Pz one, but it isn't the case : earphone and throat mike are here inseparable from each other.

Hi Yuri,

Finally some else got hold of another set .
I had seen them many years ago for sale on shows, but did not have interest in them. That changed some weeks ago because of a photo lot I won. I will show the picture later on.

I got two of them, both dated 1940.
