if there are any monophones built for 817,
Rami, we have an American English translation problem.
I think monophones are not monophonic headphones.
Please tell us... What are monophones?
Here are some American English Definitions...
-Earphone (RX):
Miniature speaker placed inside the ear.
-Earbud (RX):
Miniature foam-covered earphone.
-Headphone (RX):
Small speaker placed against the ear.
-Handset (TX/RX):
Telephone style hand unit PTT.
-Headset (TX/RX):
Headphone with small flexible boom microphone attached.
-Speaker-Mic (TX/RX):
Microphone and speaker in one hand unit PTT.
-Monophone:
?????????????
IMHO...
An excellent aftermarket accessory for the FT-817 would be a small
waterproof speaker-mic with a Heil mic element. The FT-817 speaker-mic
cord would end in both an RJ45 and a mini-phone connector.
The Vertex VX-1200 has an excellent waterproof speaker-mic with a mini
socket on it for an optional earphone. I certainly have found the
VX-1200 speaker-mic to be a very convenient device for hiking
(pedestrian mobile).
