Headset to mp3 Adapter
I bought one of those "Y" adapters so I could play my iPod thru my
stereo headset. Your headset plug goes in 1 end, and then it branches off to a standard headset plug for the intercom and a "mini" plug for the iPod. The problem is that the plane's radio volume drops to barely audible, even with the volume turned all the way up. The mp3 player volume has a nice low to loud range so I can adjust it. But I can barely pick up ATC calls even with the radio volume turned to max. I had to disconnect it. Any explanations and work-arounds? I tossed the bag and receipt so I can't return it. Thanks! --Jeff |

Headset to mp3 Adapter
A work-around: I bought one of those external battery-powered intercoms
some time ago, for using in 4-seat rentals with 2-place intercoms. It has a line-in and line-out jack. Now I plug it in to the back seat headset jacks (and can plug a headset (or 4, for a total of 7), and record audio though the line-out jack, with NO performance degradation of the rest of the system. It's expensive, but I already spent the money, and it works. |

What an idea! Fortunately, I had a Flightcom external intercom
gathering dust in my closet for years. Unfortunately, I finally sold it over eBay about 4 months ago. It figures! --Jeff Thanks. Brien K.
