+<h2><center>Connecting headset</center></h2>
+
+<p align='justify'>
+You need a headset and a second audio device.
+I use a cheap 'LogiLink' USB sound adapter and a Headset with microphone.
+</p>
+
+<center><img src="headset.jpg"/></center>
+
+<p align='justify'>
+You may use an USB sound adapter and a headset or a USB headset with built-in sound card.
+Check 'alsamixer' if the sound adapter has been detected.
+Press 'F6' to select the headset or the sound adapter connected to the headset.
+</p>
+
+<center><img src="alsa-select.png"/></center>
+
+<p align='justify'>
+Mute the microphone, so you wount hear yourself if you speak into the microphone.
+Be sure to press 'F3' to change into Playback view.
+Mute playback and not recording from microphone.
+To mute, select he microphone with the cursor keys and press 'm'.
+</p>
+
+<center><img src="alsa-mute.png"/></center>
+
+<p align='justify'>
+To get the device, run 'arecord -l' and you get the following list, if you have two sound cards:
+</p>
+
+<font size='4'><pre>
+# arecord -l
+**** List of CAPTURE Hardware Devices ****
+card 0: Intel [HDA Intel], device 0: ALC269VB Analog [ALC269VB Analog]
+ Subdevices: 1/1
+ Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
+card 2: Set [C-Media USB Headphone Set], device 0: USB Audio [USB Audio]
+ Subdevices: 1/1
+ Subdevice #0: subdevice #0
+</pre></font>
+
+<p align='justify'>
+You see your card 0 and device 0: This should be the sound card you connect to your radio equipment.
+There is also the second sound device: In my case it is card 2 and device 0.
+Connect the second sound device to your headset and use '-c hw:2,0" (card 2, device 0) to tell the base station to select this sound device for your headset.
+</p>
+
+<p align='justify'>
+To calibrate audio level, run some music player and adjust output volume, so you hear the music at regular speech volume.
+Use 'alsamixer' to change the output volume of your second sound card.
+This calibartion must be done before calibrating the microphone.
+To calibarte input level (mircrophone), run the B-Netz base station with loopback test 3.
+</p>
+
+<font size='4'><pre>
+# src/bnetz/bnetz -L 3 -c hw:2,0
+bnetz.c:268 info : Entering IDLE state, sending 'Gruppenfreisignal' 2 on channel 1.
+Base station ready, please tune transmitter to 153.010 MHz and receiver to 148.410 MHz.
+To call phone, switch transmitter using pilot tone to 153.370 MHz
+</pre></font>
+
+<p align='justify'>
+Now you should hear yourself when you speak into the microphone.
+You should also notice a short delay, but this is normal.
+Now it is time to calibrate the microphone:
+Use 'alsamixer' to adjust input level, so that you hear your voice at regular speech volume.
+Be sure to select Capture view by pressing 'F4'.
+</p>
+
+<center><img src="alsa-mic.png"/></center>
+
+<p align='justify'>
+I also had to mute the "Auto Gain Control", as found in the Playback View by pressing 'F4'.
+I muted it using 'm' key.
+</p>
+
+<p align='justify'>
+Finally store the settings using "alsactl store" command.
+Do this whenever you want to keep your adjustments.
