An enjoyable and somewhat untaxing puzzle. A very pleasant solving experience. Just to be different it was “earpiece” that we first tried to fit into 16d until we saw the light. Thanks Cephas and BD.

3*/3* for me. I wasted unnecessary time on 20a, where PS(alms) ‘contracted’ just happened to give the same abbreviation as that of the answer, both of which are in Chambers. Thanks to Cephas, and to BD.
