Abstract
Each listening device of a binaural listening system comprises a signal processing unit for processing a signal comprising audio and for performing logic actions based on one or more control inputs, and an antenna and transceiver unit for establishing said wireless link. The transceiver unit comprises a transmit control unit allowing the transmission of first data with a first level of transmission power providing a first operating transmission range and the transmission of second data with a second level of transmission power providing a second operating transmission range, wherein said second operating transmission range is larger than said first operating transmission range. Receive control units of the listening devices are adapted to extract the first control signal from the first data received from the respective opposite listening device.
