Hi David, Yes good idea about the airplane mode when in a mobile reception area. Tomorrow I will post the schematic I use for my HTC desire as I think they are the same from the headset connection point of view. If you insert a pair of isolation transformers in the middle of my schematic that should work well, as I protect the microphone inputs through resistance attenuation. I have calibrated the resistance values so that by default the adjustments are more or less "in the middle", leaving the option to increase or decrease the settings (SSB MIC gain on the Rig and volume out on the phone for example). I will dig out my old Bluetooth headset to test the audio quality and will report (probably early next week as I am on a business trip for the rest of this week).
