I am wondering if they are worth buying? If anybody has experience with them I would love to hear all about them.
Throat mics?

We have a few peltor litecoms with throat mics, sounds like the guy is talking with mouth closed on the other end.

I have several and when they work they work great! I think though, that our greatest limitations are not the mikes but the transceivers. We are looking into better radios that have higher quality audio and that should improve our communications.
However, GIGO applies to electronics too. Bad mikes make bad comms so you do want to spend $$$ for a better mike.

I've never used them but always wondered. I'm anxious for the feed back too.

We were going to get them in Iraq, but they had issues so we stuck with the " secret service" style you see in the movies, where they bring mike up to mouth, but we clipped them to collar area on body armor, they worked great. We also had top of the line encrypted radios too, LOL Motorolla xts 5000 I think, not the civillan version, but they are top quality, but big for tree work. I have 2 eXRS by trisquare. Has vox, but I don't use it, figured the vox would kick in everytime I ran saw and guy on ground would have the saw screaming in his ear, LOL
