How to assemble a bench test for testing and repair ICS AUDIO CONTROLLER ON AGUSTA BELL AB212 HELICOPTER ??

Looking to sell an xl hgu 56. I used the helmet with a high impedance mic and it worked well. I have not tested the low impedance mic currently installed. CEPs included as well as a GoPro Mount that clips into the quick release nvg. I stripped the helmet down to the shell before painting. Could easily be done again if you wanted to change the color. I was only able to post a few photos have more for anyone interested. Feel free to reach out with any questions. Looking to get 825 for the helmet plus shipping.

I am a university student in my third year, Aviation Management With Logistics currently conducting research. I am in need of 10 additional participants for my study. Your participation would be completely anonymous and would greatly assist me in completing my dissertation with the necessary data. I would be very grateful if you could help me by filling out the questionnaire I have created. I am also a student pilot flying an R22. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1LJ5WNvTbLDsXg2d3E8Jgq363ZxMPOkqZEriidcckT90/edit?chromeless=1
