Is this what you had in mind as a possible way for Bonnie to wire me into a sound board? Bonnie wanted to find away to take my hearing aids and Telex off and just hook me into some kind of earphones. She heas'nt tried it yet, but I am afraid if she does that, that all I will hear is a bigger jumble of noise than I already hear even with my aids on! Bonnie is an excellent Audio Engineer with very very impressive credits in her background, but I am not sure she understand about hearing loss. It seems like she is approaching this from a "making it louder will make her hear" point of view. I will let you know what happens! Keepin' the faith! .
