"Somebody check your mike on the radio, please..."

And if the stack has an audio panel worthy of the name, the opposite
transceiver's audio is cut off during transmit to prevent an unholy squeal
coming down the audio line of the receiver that is still operating.

hmmm... what I had in mind was a split (pilot/copilot) stack, but upon
further thought the transmitter would overwhelm the receiver, even though
the receiver is not switched off.
ss.

You sure? I've operated split (on different frequencies), and not been
cut off when the other pilot was transmitting. Does the audio panel
know what frequencies each radio is using?

It has nothing to do with the audio panel. There is a "transmit
interconnect" wire between radios. It doesn't always get installed. I had to
have one retrofitted after completion of my Garmin 430---King KX-165A
installation.

With such an installation, wouldn't each pilot be frustrated while the
other pilot is transmitting, defeating much of the purpose of the split?

No, it works just fine. You can hear a little garbling if you are
talking on close frequencies like 122.75 and 122.8 The Garmin audio
panel does not shut down the receiver of the radio not being transmitted on.

That is remarkable receiver selectivity performance. What com
equipment do you have installed? Is it Garmin as well?

Not only is it remarkable selectivity, but crossmod, intermod, and all the
rest of the *mods combined with the antennas less than 5 feet apart, a 10
watt transmitter and a 1 microvolt receiver. One might be tempted to call
it a miracle.

No, just a pair of crappy Narco Mk 12D's.

Excuse me, I design audio panels for a living and have done so for almost 40
years. DOn't tell me it has nothing to do with the audio panel. It has
EVERYTHING to do with the audio panel.

I would never try to tell you anything, Jim. I'd just throw it out in a
trough and listen to you come squealing.
