Made these MSA left/RIGHT phones for my friend John. Dang muffs nearly doubled in price from several years ago.

I also moded my antenna wire thru the shaft.

How's it working out? Was thinking about doing the same and just saw your post.. Once that antenna wire is out of sight, the D2 would almost be back to being a true wireless detector.. Out of sight out of mind..

in the water you search with the 9 inch spool not with the 11 one which is heavy to move and flexes the shaft

It works just fine. The trick is to coil the antenna wire like the CTX so it can collapse for storage and transport. Good luck to you.

I have had no problems and with the 11” in the water.
