				Question, what is the BEST intercom for use in a high ambient noise 
 cockpit?
 
 I have a Sigtronic mounted in my CJ -6 but I still need to have the 
 volume control all the way up in order to hear anything at high cruise 
 settings. Even then the backseat complains of not being able to hear.
 
 Thanks,
 Walt Murphy

				Walt,
 I have been using Sigtronics high noise Warbird intercoms for the past 5 
 years and have absolutely nothing bad to report, I have plenty of 
 volume, absolutely no problems.  I have the stereo version with music 
 inputs from a Ipod.  I have put them in a 206, several CJ6's and 2 CJ5's 
 and never had a problem.  A quick question, do you have the model with 
 the high noise warbird mod or the standard version?   Not that it should 
 make a difference but I am using Sigtronics head sets and boom mics 
 also, maybe there is a problem with the mixing of your gear?  I have 
 used my intercom with Light Speed and Bose and both gave great sound 
 with plenty of clarity and volume.  Give them a call, I am sure they 
 will give you some pointers.  If you do not have the high noise mod 
 maybe they can upgrade your unit.  The Sigtronics SPA4SN is the two 
 place high noise version meant to be used in aircraft like the CJ6.  The 
 owner of Sigtronics uses the same unit in his T-28. 
 
 Sigtronics 909-305-9399
 
 Hope this helps,
 Always Yakin,
 Doug Sapp

				The Sigtronics high-noise Warbird model didn't work for me either when I mixed headset brands. The PMA-4000 works a whole lot better and offers limited audio switching, all in a 2-1/2 " hole.

				In my CJ, we use a "push-to-talk" intercom that comes with the radio. It is 
 not voice activated, but takes care of all the possible squelsh problems.

				Fougapilot (Dan), I agree with you on this topic. The ptt intercom is perfect for the Yak. 
 
 We have an 18T and tried the softcom intercom, not a good idea!
 We battled to install it and once it was in, we could not use it at the 82% cruise or aerobat power setting, or if any front windows were open.
 
 Do you know if anyone has sucessfully linked this original intercom to the two back seats, on the 18T, with ptt buttons for the pax ?
 
 Mark
