Getting these pesky settings just right!

Thanks Kev and Baltazard for all of that which makes things clearer. Especially about the choice of fitting formulae.
I’m still waiting to hear from the NHS as to whether the Phonaks they have supplied will work with any Roger accessories. If they won’t the choice is pretty much made for me isn’t it?
Cheers,
Roger

@rogerinshoreham Your Phonak Naida M70 SP WILL (I stress WILL not vill) work (not vork) with the Roger accessories, it’s just you will need a license for it or check the configurator (see link above), for example, check these videos:

And this:

And this:

And this:

And this:

Roger On is the latest Roger accessory, it has an app which you can customize the Roger ON as you wish, it is worth the stretch.
Or as @Zebras said, if you don’t want the hassle of licenses, just get the PartnerMic, which will work out of the box.

Note 1: I hope no one will get made (this isn’t a message in the bottle ) or upset, I just give what I believe (in my best knowledge) is the best advice at this moment in time, please do more research so you can confirm or reject my comments.

Note 2: I am not affiliated with Phonak or Roger or any manufacturer in any ways or shapes, period, I am only (reminds me Michael Caine’s: you’re only supposed to bl*w the bl**dy doors off ) here as a user to learn, help and spread the knowledge (hopefully without misleading)

Partner Mic would be a lot easier for him.

NHS won’t provide the Roger licenses. They don’t even provide them for children.

@Zebras Does the NHS provide the PartnerMic?

@Baltazard

Yes or get some type of funding.

eBay is a good option tho for him for both a Roger iN or Partner Mic.

My Partner Mic cost £70 from eBay with a 2022 serial number.

Just thought, he could get a Roger NeckLoop instead of bothering with the License issue.

@Zebras @rogerinshoreham

It seems like the Roger On isn’t on list!

All Rogers will work once the licenses are installed or he uses a Roger NeckLoop.

I use a Pen, Select and On with my hearing aids.

The serial number doesn’t matter on the Partner Mic. They didn’t come out until 2018 and are made for Marvel / Paradise / Lumity Aids.

Serial number is only needed for the Roger X receiver which you don’t need for the Partner Mic.

This is the Partner Mic. Don’t confuse it with the silver Mic that is for older Phonak Aids.

Partner Mic works the same way as the TV Connector. It’s called AirStream Technology.

Thanks Zebras, that is unequivocal.
If I see a used one for sale I should grab it! As you’ve said all along!
You seem to have tried all these things. Being fairly new is the technology in this as good as the Roger goodies, in your experience? If we go back to what I’m looking for it is for my boss when there is hubbub in the office or when having a meal out with my wife.
After I’ve heard your views I’ll let you live in peace knowing you’ve helped someone today.

For me for 1-1 the Partner Mic is as good as the Roger in my opinion. The older silver Mic for older Phonak Aids, is rubbish but the Partner Mic is massively improved.

@rogerinshoreham

I’ve missed it. What’s on Friday, audiology?

Yes, my appointment is on Friday. Since our earlier exchange I found a Phonak PartnerMic brand new at £166 after the VAT declaration. A company called HAB. Brilliant. So I’m probably going for that.

Paul Minikin owns that company. He’s a great guy. He’s done a lot for me, helped me with all sorts. Been talking to him for about 12 / 13 years.

The Partner Mic will work automatically in terms of, no program is needed to be added.

They’re back in the part of the country I’m from. I just completed the VAT declaration and will buy it as soon as I hear from them. They have some glowing testimonials and now yours so I don’t think I’m going wrong here. Can’t wait.
