Anyone had any experince with FRS headsets? I'm interested in trying one.

I plugged my cell phone headset in and the Rino started asking me questions as to what type of headset I had.

Will any standard cell phone headset work? Is there a better type for the FRS radios?

I have experimented with a cellphone headset as well as the headset I use with my Icom ham equipment. Both work, but apparently the push-to-talk wiring scheme used by Garmin is somewhat different than Icom's, so the PTT doesn't function. They both work fine in VOX.

I will be tinkering with this further and will let you know what I find out.
