Hi.

We have an issue where radio transmissions mute the intercom, preventing pilot/passenger comms. Once a radio message has finished the intercom is ok again. Just wondered if anyone has had something similar or has any ideas we can explore

The radio is a Funkwerk 833 and the intercom is a flightcom 403.

Many thanks

Jeremy

Sounds like the headset audio is being routed through the auxiliary input normally used for music. Don’t know the intercom myself but the Funk has an inbuilt two place intercom and it doesn’t exhibit that effect, I have one, so must be the Flightcom 403 and either the wiring between the two or the setup.

Is it a new setup?

Hi
I am a complete amateur on radio stuff, but I do remember in the past having a similar problem. It is caused by factory default which has decided that radio transmissions should override the intercom. I fixed the problem through the setup pages on the radio where you can alter the priorities.
Just a random thought that just may help.

This is a safety option incorporated in most modern radios(with built-in intercoms) and standalone audio. The marketing blather usually calls
it Radio Priority or Auto-Mute. Depending on manufacturer, it can be
disabled by a switch, by a jumper on the rear connector, or some other imaginative, inconvenient technique.

In the case of the 403, from the manual:

Look at Figure 5 and 6

thank for the replies. it was indeed the intercom factory default settings and now the offending wire has been cut, it is back to radio and intercom together

Although most of the musical tracks nowadays are may be easily accessed online, anyway I am looking for paid services like https://mp3caprice.com/genre at least because I may download faster there entire album and with more quality. A necessity of downloading appears anyway quite often, as soon as while listening, for example, during a trip, sometimes Internet connection may fail and so on.
