Good idea... thanks!!! :)

Okay... I want to start out by stating I don't want any negative comments. We went to Sick Kids yesterday and we met with the SLP & Social Worker. Unfortunately, Tyler was his usual "out in public/professional" self. He acted like a complete monkey and didn't really show his...

Thanks Alicia... Tyler is actually in preschool this year. He qualifies for JK next year but we may keep him in preschool for another year. So, yes he will using his FM at preschool as soon as he gets it - but we also plan on using it at home. I'm hoping he'll have more clarity with...

I'm not the best to ask AlleyCat as this will be our 1st FM... but I'll try. We're getting ours through our audiologist. The receiver (boots) attaches to your hearing aids and brings the sound of the speaker wearing the transmitter closer and clearer. We're planning on using it at...

Thanks for the info... it's very helpful!!! I'm definetely choosing the boots over the T-Coil. They sound more reliable. Tyler is pretty good with indicating there is a problem with his aids - he generally pulls them out and brings them to me to fix. He knows how to turn them on and...

Then a SmartLink+ it is... thanks for the input!!!

What is the reasoning for this? I've been researching the use of FM systems and I haven't come across this.

We had an appointment with the audi last week for a hearing test and we discussed new aids and fm system. She recommended Naida's and she thinks the FM system will help Tyler. Why not give it a try? He's been fitted with aids for a few years now, he seems to understand quite a bit of...

Okay... I think I've decided... Naida V's (undecided on colour - waiting to get husband's input) SmartLink Transmitter ML11i Receiver I'm assuming with his degree of loss, super powered... but I guess that will be up to the audi.

I can see Tyler doing this too! :giggle:

Since the MLX10s are replaced from the battery door - can they stay on the ha's even when the fm system is not being used? Or do I have to keep removing and putting back on?

Nice to meet you... :wave: We live in Ontario, Canada. Tyler qualifies for ACSD (assistance) so his aids/FM and equipment are all covered. We have to pay for preschool but he also gets a SLP, deaf/hoh teacher, and such covered for free. It all helps!!!

gotcha... thanks!

In my opinion, he's not autistic... a few professionals have mentioned it but personally I think it's from lack of knowledge about hearing loss.

Firstly... I don't know a lot about FM systems just yet but I plan on testing the FM system quite regularly as I do with his hearing aids. I'm sure there is a chance that the FM could malfunction between testing... but I'm willing to take that chance for the amount of times this happens vs...

I'm looking into a FM for 2 reasons - 1st - he'll be wearing one in school and I want to start getting him adjusted to it now. Not to mention, he goes to preschool now and I want his resource teacher who works with him to wear it. 2nd - I want to add an FM system to provide Tyler with...

I was thinking about choosing: SmartLink Transmitter Receiver - trying to decide between ML11i/ML10i (SP/UP), and MLxi Anyone know anything about the differences from a boot and a MLxi Receivers - MLxi | Phonak - life is on

hmmm... just looked it up... not sure if I like the idea of the t coil... for one thing, not sure if Tyler would keep it around his neck. He may end up playing with it (remember he is a 3 year old), not to mention I'm not sure if I like the idea of having something around his neck (for obvious...

Which transmitter do you have - I see SmartLink, ZoomLink, EasyLink MyLink appears to be a receiver. What is the difference between using a t-coil receiver and a boot receiver?
