A radio earpiece is a small audio device used to listen to radio communication. Perfect for covert communications, they are widely used by law enforcement, security officers, and others. But are you wearing them correctly? Here’s a simple guide to help you get the most out of your small earpieces:
Most small earpieces come with different sizes of ear tips—usually small, medium, and large. Achieving the proper fit isn’t just about feeling comfortable—it also unlocks the full potential of sound clarity and blocks out unwanted noise.
Insert the earpiece along the edge of your ear at the correct angle. Adjust the position of the ear tip according to your comfort. If you're using surveillance kits, you'll need to loop the acoustic tube over your ear before placing the earbud inside.
According to your needs, you can route the cable behind your neck and extend it along the inside of your clothing until the earpiece plug connects to your radio.
If your earpiece has a clip, attach the clip and mic in a position where you can easily pick up sound and feel comfortable. A lapel PTT usually comes with a metal clip, making it easy to hide under a sport coat, jacket, or other clothing for a discreet look.
Once everything is set up, it’s time for a quick test! Say something like “Testing, 1, 2, 3” into the radio and check if your partner can hear you clearly. If they can, great—your earpiece is working perfectly.
