The FreeCom 3000 is equipped with a boom microphone to pick up the user’s voice for
communication. The microphone has close-talk, directional characteristics to provide maximum
suppression of ambient noise. The earJack™ adapter that features the boom microphone can be
attached to either your left or right ear mold. When using FreeCom 3000 products in outdoor
environments, foam windscreens significantly reduce the wind noise generated by turbulence
around the microphone. A foam windscreen sleeve can be pulled over the microphone. Check
that the front microphone inlet (with the white dot on the microphone) still points toward the
mouth after mounting the sleeve.
