I want to use my 800 in lake water hunting. I wade in water that is about half way between waist to chest high and this will cause my control box to be submerged. Found out wireless bluetooth blanks out in a couple of inches of water so that is not a solution.

I have telex headphones that I prefer to use due to very good high freq audio qualities. It has a 1/4" plug.

how do I go about getting or making a true water proof connector or adaptor for the 800?

thanks.

You will need to have a connector added to your headphones to make it work, it has to screw in the headphone jack to engage the o-ring in the jack to be waterproof.
