cockpit noise

That reminds me, too.... some of the fancier intercoms have multiple
squelches. Mine has multiple thresholds (independently adjustable), but when it
opens, it opens all of them. Some not only have that, but only opens the mic on the
one that broke squelch. To narrow it down, I'd still say try flying with only one
headset plugged in. If that one headset makes too much noise, a new intercom won't
help.... new headset will.
