Hey, Jay, after fifteen minutes of farting around trying to "register" on a

really don't want, I aborted trying to leave a comment on your picture site.


Interesting...you're not the first to have problems.

If you plan on using an HT in the cockpit without interconnecting it to the
headphone and microphone of your headset, be prepared to do one of two
things: get reports that you cannot be understood or turn the mic
clipping level to zero and the mic gain WAY down on the HT.


I've done it before, but not in the Zodiac. (Holding the radio directly in
front of the headset microphone with my mouth closed allowed the radio's
speaker to be heard over the intercom.) I've got a spare radio connection on
my GMA340; I'll play with that after I get home. I do have the ARRL book you
wrote for. The HT's an IC-91AD, and one of the things I want to do is play
with D-Star from the air.
