I hear crackling noises
Bluetooth is a radio technology, which means it is
sensitive to objects between the headset and the
connected device. It is designed for the headset and the
connected device to be used within 10 meters (33 feet) of
each other, with no major objects in the way (walls, etc.).
Will it be possible to listen to radio on my phone with
the HB420?
Being able to listen to radio via Bluetooth depends on your
phone. Most of the mobile phones currently on the market
require a corded headset that uses the cord as an antenna.

Ensure that the headset is paired to a device that is
playing.
