Do you have a headset/earmuffs on your comm set up?
Nope. It’s just below the requirement for double hearing protection in all our areas except for the turbine rooms, so earplugs only. No muffs. When I’m in the control room and an operator clicks the mic, there is a split second of noise and then it goes away. Everyone is trained to press the button and say, “and one” in your head before you start talking. Otherwise the first word is usually cut off.
We’ve had these for about two years now. Like I said, pretty expensive. $250.00 a pop.
