Today I arrived home, and was greeted by a package waiting on my back step. Its not like this was the highlight of my week or anything... well maybe it was.
My new "toy" is a new UltraScope, which so far, I'm in love with. I thought it was time to invest in a descent scope. I previously have, or still have a Littmann Select which is a good scope, but for me at least, not my favorite. I immediatly noticed a hige difference in the overall acoustics of the Ultrascope versus the Select. Everthing seems to be amplified by a great deal. Its true about being able to auscultate through numerous layers of clothing. I was actually shocked at first by the size of the head... nothing on the website shows a sillouette view of the head, and I didn't realize how awkwardly shaped they are as you can see in the pictures I've upliaded. For some reason I thought it was more pancaked shaped. I also got my last name engraved in the head (which I blurred out for obvious reasons). It'll take some time getting used to the larger size, but I don't notice any huge ergonomical differences in how it rests on my neck; seems quite comfortable. I lastly decided, when ordering, to get "dont steal me" neon green.
Not only is it hideous to some, but able to be spotted from a mile if it ever walks away on me. I'll be sure to follow up with how it performs after I use it for a while!
