Abstract
An earset microphone includes an earpiece having a wedge portion wherein the wedge portion is positioned between a back side of the ear and a scalp to secure the earpiece in a selected position. A mounting bracket is positioned within the wedge portion. A boom is secured to the mounting bracket and extends from the earpiece such that the boom positions from below an ear lobe towards a mouth of the speaker. A microphone is positioned at the distal end of the boom proximate the speaker's mouth such that the microphone converts the speaker's voice into an electronic signal. An end of a cable is secured to the mounting bracket such that the cable remains secured to the mounting bracket during use and wherein the cable transfers the signal from the microphone to an external component.
