StevieBoy 0 #1 May 2, 2002 Sorry Guys, old question, but I need to know.I have just been given a Pro-Dytter, I haven't jumped it yet, BUT, where do I put it for best results in a Pro-Tec?, in the ear chamber (inside) dial facing in or out, or on the outside, dial facing in or out, any help here would be great.THANKS"Skydiving's a source, it'll change your life, swear to God" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
klingeme 1 #2 May 2, 2002 Put it in the ear hole with the lights facing out and secure it by tying it to the "Vents" in the ear holes.Mark KlingelhoeferMark Klingelhoefer Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkydiveMonkey 0 #3 May 2, 2002 Jumped a pro-tec with my pro-track a few times - it's fits nice in the ear hole. Put the speaker on the inside so you'll hear it better. You could also tape over the vents on the helmet as well to cut down on noise, but I didn't find it necessary. boobies - the cause of, and solution to, all of lifes problems Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
quade 4 #4 May 2, 2002 I have an old Pro-Tec I use for hop&pops and screwing around.I tie-wrapped a couple of baby socks in each ear hole with the openings towards the tops of the helmet. To secure the ProTrack in place, I slip the device into one of the baby socks and then shove the top of the sock under the helmet liner. I can slip the ProTrack in and remove it easily at any time. Also, it keeps the ProTrack from getting too scratched up and it's nice and comfy on the ears.quadehttp://futurecam.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StevieBoy 0 #5 May 8, 2002 The baby sock thing works for me, man, aint modern Tec stuff come a long way, : )This thing is very loud on the ground, with the speaker facing into your ear & the dial facing out, woulden't this hurt your ear, alot????????"Skydiving's a source, it'll change your life, swear to God" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SkydiveMonkey 0 #6 May 8, 2002 It's dangerously loud on the ground, but in the air with freefall noise and stuff, it's just right. I jump with mine on lous all the time without problems When I grow up, I want to be a post whore Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
billo 0 #7 May 9, 2002 Quotewith the speaker facing into your ear & the dial facing out, woulden't this hurt your ear, alot????????definately have the speaker towards your ear during freefall. if you don't believe me, secure it so it is facing out and try it for a jump or two. it will be noticable, but not as noticable as i think it is designed for...the main time my pro-dytter hurts is when you go thru 1000 feet. simple solution - plug your ear with your index finger when you start to hear other dytters go off in the plane - they usually all go off within a few seconds of each other. this will protect your "non-freefall" hearing and will let you know that the dytter is working ok!--- wearing freefly pants is not a crime ---billo Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StevieBoy 0 #8 May 11, 2002 My dytter fits nice & snug in my ear piece, if thats the case with the finger thing, I just might hold on to it till after 2grand & pop it in, don't know if it's the way in France but no one wears a helmet till 10 grand?"Skydiving's a source, it'll change your life, swear to God" Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dumpster 0 #9 May 17, 2002 I stick mine in the ear hole, light to the outside, and hold it in place with rubberbands- works like a charm! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
