The NEC SL1100 phone can be used with a wireless headset, but it will require a specific type of connection. The NEC SL1100 phone has a 2.5mm headset jack, which is not compatible with most wireless headsets, which typically use a USB or Bluetooth connection. To use a wireless headset with the NEC SL1100 phone, you will need a USB-to-2.5mm headset adapter or a Bluetooth-to-2.5mm headset adapter. The Plantronics CS50 wireless headset is not directly compatible with the NEC SL1100 phone. However, Plantronics offers a USB-to-2.5mm headset adapter which can be used with the CS50. It's worth noting that some NEC SL1100 phones are equipped with a built-in Bluetooth module, which allows you to connect a Bluetooth headset directly. To check if your NEC SL1100 phone has this feature, you can check the user manual or contact the manufacturer. It's important to check the compatibility of the wireless headset and the phone system, before making any purchase. It's recommended to consult the manual of the phone system or the technical support of the phone system provider to ensure that the wireless headset you plan to purchase is compatible with the phone system.

1. It sounds like you're experiencing an issue with your SSB (Single Sideband) transmission on your Galaxy Saturn radio, where you're getting a carrier signal when you're on SSB mode. One possible solution to this problem is to adjust the carrier balance on your radio. The carrier balance is a control that adjusts the level of the carrier signal in relation to the sidebands (the audio information) in the SSB transmission. By adjusting the carrier balance, you can eliminate or reduce the carrier signal and improve the clarity of the audio. The VR (variable resistor) that you need to adjust to adjust the carrier balance depends on the specific model of your Galaxy Saturn radio. It's best to consult the radio's manual or check the schematic diagram to locate the VR that controls the carrier balance. When you turn your inline amp on, the carrier is amplified to about 700-800 on SSB, which is about 85% of the total output power of the Texas Star DX1200. This can cause distortion on SSB transmission and can cause splatter on the adjacent frequency. It's important to properly adjust the carrier balance, as well as the power output and microphone gain, to ensure that your SSB transmissions are clean and clear. It's also recommended to check for any other adjustments such as Microphone Gain and Power output. It's always recommended to seek help from a professional radio technician if you are unsure or cannot find the VR. Please note that the information provided is based on my knowledge cut-off date and it may not be current.

There are a few things you can try to troubleshoot this issue with your 2013 Chrysler 300c's Uconnect Bluetooth system:

1. Make sure that your phone's Bluetooth is turned on and that it is in pairing mode.
2. Check the Uconnect system's settings to ensure that Bluetooth is turned on and that it is set to discoverable mode.
3. Try restarting both the Uconnect system and your phone to see if that resolves the issue.
4. Check the vehicle's manual to see if there are any specific instructions for pairing a device with the Uconnect system.
5. If the above steps don't work, try clearing the Uconnect system's memory of previously paired devices, and then try pairing your phone again.
6. Check if the software of the Uconnect system is up-to-date, if not update the software.
7. Try deleting all previously paired devices on the Uconnect system, and then try pairing your phone.

If none of these steps resolve the issue, it may be a problem with the Uconnect system itself and you may need to take your vehicle to a Chrysler dealership for further assistance.

If none of these steps resolve the issue, you should contact Plantronics customer support for further assistance.

It sounds like there may be an issue with the charging mechanism of your Cardo ScalaRider Bluetooth headset. The blue blinking light you're seeing indicates that the device is powered on, but it should blink red when charging. This could be caused by a problem with the charging port or the battery itself. One possible solution is to try a different charging cable and wall adapter to see if that resolves the issue. If that doesn't work, it may be worth trying to reset the device by holding down the power button for 10 seconds while it's connected to the charger. If that doesn't work, the battery or charging port may be damaged and in need of replacement. If none of the above solutions work, please reach out to the manufacturer for further assistance. They may be able to provide a warranty or repair service for your device.

The Motorola XPR 4550 is a two-way radio, not a scanner. Scanners are devices that can listen to a wide range of frequencies, whereas two-way radios are designed for communication between a limited number of specific devices on specific frequencies. However, you can use a scanner to listen to the frequency that the Motorola XPR 4550 is transmitting on.

If your TVBP-BTN wireless stereo headset is not charging properly and the blue light is not showing, there are a few things you can check to fix the problem.

1. Check the charger: Make sure that the charger is functioning properly and that the connections are secure. Try using a different charger or USB port to see if that resolves the issue.
2. Check the charging port: Make sure that the charging port on the headset is not dirty or blocked. Clean it with a dry cloth if necessary.
3. Check the battery: Make sure that the battery is not damaged or dead. If the battery is damaged or dead, the headset will not charge.
4. Check for software updates: Make sure that your headset's firmware is up to date, if there is any updates available, install it.
5. Check the manual: Check the manual that came with the headset for any troubleshooting steps or contact the manufacturer for further assistance.
6. If you have tried all of the above and the problem persists, it may be a hardware issue, and the headset may need to be repaired or replaced.

It could be a bad mic cable or connector. If it is a cheap mic cable, then the chances are very good that the cable has shorted internally. If the mic works on something else, then it is possible that there is a setup function that you have to turn on/off for the mic to work. From what I can see from your photos, I would bet on a low quality MIC cable.
