Audiologist Appt.
Yesterday I had an audiologist appointment, and we tried localizing, and using the background noise mode on the BP100. When we tried localizing, I was doing a little bit better than when I only used my compact, but I was still not great at it, by any means. It was also quite a bit harder to localize in a soundproof room than in normal situations.
One thing I realized yesterday: the background noise mode on the BP100 helps a whole bunch!!! I was tested how well I can hear wearing both BAHA’s with background noise (just white noise), and then compared it to the same situation with the BP100 on the directional mike, and it was significantly better than without.
This was interesting, because before the test I didn’t really notice the background program helping that much at school, or other places like that. Now, however, I am noticing more and more that it really helps cut down the noise behind me.
