Ironically, Roger, I came across a Hearing loop today in the
office with a 3.5mm plug. Now all I have to do is find
someone with an appropriate hearing aid to test in with!

Hi Ibrahim
I'm a new member of the list but not a Book Courier owner. I
am extremely interested in purchasing one but have a
problem. I have a severe hearing loss therefore I am unable
to use the normal listening methods of earphones or earbuds.
But a method exists of listening via inductive coupler, the
T switch setting of my hearing aids and a neck loop. But I'm
having problems finding out if it is compatible or not. I've
spoken to George who doesn't know but is prepared to give me
a full refund if it is not. This is an extremely generous
offer but I feel it puts him to a good deal of cost and
inconvenience for the sake of an answer to a simple
question. So I went to Springer Support and asked them. The
reply I received astounded me. "If it has a 3.5 mm jack plug
it will probably work" The depths of the lack of knowledge
was beyond words. A jack plug has no bearing on the
acceptability at all as I have several items that will not
accept an inductive neck loop signal.
So Ibrahim, to put your statement of knowledge to the test,
can you help me please? Alternatively if there are any
hearing aid users on the list reading this can I have your
views please.
Many thanks
Roger
