Deaf Children Australia
Hearing Aid, Hearing Aid from Myer Hearing Service
The first all transistor hearing aids appeared in 1953. They were created to replace vacuum tubes; they were small, required less battery power and had less distortion and heat than their predecessor. The vacuum tubes were typically hot and fragile, so the transistor was the ideal replacement. The size of these transistors led to developments in miniature, carbon microphones. These microphones could be mounted on various items. There were body hearing aids where the earpiece was connected to the hearing aid and battery pack worn on the body. Ear level hearing aids consisted of eyeglass, behind the ear (BTE), in the ear (ITE), and in the canal (ITC, CIC) hearing aids. Tan plastic case hearing aid, with wire, ear piece and ear mold with metal clip. Made in England and sold by Myer Hearing Service. "MYER/HEARING SERVICE" engraved in gold on case. "MADE IN ENGLAND" on bottom of case. deaf children australia, hearing aid, myer hearing service -
