Ah OK good point - I usually pair with my phone so I'll have to check the laptop has bluetooth. many thanks - I'll check tonight

You could use them via a phone as long as you install the app. I would connect the phone to WiFi. I've not tried it, but no reason it wouldnt work

Mind you the android app costs £1.49

Or, I guess I could get a bluetooth USB dongle for the laptop if it doesn't have bluetooth built in...?

You can check your settings in Tools / Options

Then under Playback there are options to test playback and set volumes, and similar under capture for setting microphone levels

On my Turbo PC (Win 7 32 bit) my sound always drops out after a couple of seconds after any of my BT earphones connect (through the headphones).
I have to go into Play Back Devices and click on the Recording tap an it comes back, muted a bit at first and then when I click on the Play Back tab it goes up in volume and everything is OK.
I tried all of my headsets and I could get a dickie with any of them other than a couple of seconds.

@JacobSkovsgaard we have noticed that some people are riding Winter Cup stages using the ERG mode.

I've never used it myself and have no idea whether this actually gives the rider an advantage or not (but there have been some remarkably quick times on hilly stages which appear to use ERG mode), but the consensus on here is that its not really in the spirit of a league race to use ERG mode as the more realistic the riding and the more even the playing field for all riders the better.

What are your thoughts on whether using ERG mode in the Nations Cup races should be allowed?

I have never tried ERG mode myself, but just like you I don't think it belongs in leagues and livesessions, so I tell the other teams that it is not allowed.
