Default Transmitter Neck Straps

Does anyone happen to know where I might be able to find a transmitter neck strap that is somewhat wide for comfort and also can be adjusted low? I like my transmitter relatively low and I have not been able to find one like I am describing.

Thanks in advance.

They sell them at Tower Hobbies, but I've always thought that they were too expensive. The ones at Tower are also skinny straps. If you have a music store in your town go in there and ask for a saxophone strap. The one I got has a foam cushion for your neck area, and it only cost $3.99. Much cheaper than at Tower Hobbies

Hope this helps.

I picked up one from the AMA store...adjustable and works great. I like to hold my radio pretty low too. Here's the link: [link=http://www.modelaircraft.org/site/product.aspx?id=0877F92287104F79AFD1DE9DC0007751&d=4B45ACBAE5874E43A52182702515ABBC]AMA Neck strap[/link]
