The�Hiram Percy Maxim Memorial Station, W1AW[1], at ARRL Headquarters in
Newington, Connecticut, has received a generous donation of equipment from the
Heil Ham Radio division[2]�of�Heil Sound[3].

The company's founder, Bob Heil, K9EID, is a pioneering audio engineer and avid
radio amateur. At his direction, the company donated four Heil Pro Set Elite
HC-6 headsets, three Heil Pro Set 3 stereo headphones, two Heil FS-3
press-to-talk foot switches, one Heil iCM microphone, one Heil PR 30
microphone, and various adapters. The equipment has been placed into service at
the station for use by�visiting operators[4], and for the�voice bulletins[5]
transmitted each weekday evening by W1AW.

W1AW Station Manager Joe Carcia, NJ1Q, says the gear is going to be of great
use. "We are fortunate to host many visiting operators each year, but all that
use takes a toll on the gear," he said. "The generosity of Heil Ham Radio to
help us keep the equipment fresh is greatly appreciated."
