Bone conduction hearing aids

The principles of setting up bone conduction aids and BCHDs with an assistive listening device are exactly the same as with a hearing aid.  However, you do need to have the correct adaptor to connect it in the test box.

The NDCS booklet How radio aids can help - A guide for families  has a section on connecting radio aids to bone conduction aids (page 16).
