The Heil BM-5 series has become a favorite with contest and DXpedition operators. This series features just one earphone. (Please see the BM-10 series for dual earpieces). The BM-5-4 features the HC-4, DX Dream Machine element and has a red ear pad (shown above).
The BM-5-5 utilizes the HC-5 mic element for a full range response for rag chewing and has a blue ear pad. This model has been discontinued.
Both the BM-5's require the appropriate AD-1 adapter. See table below.
