Question, what is the BEST intercom for use in a high ambient noise
cockpit?

I have a Sigtronic mounted in my CJ -6 but I still need to have the
volume control all the way up in order to hear anything at high cruise
settings. Even then the backseat complains of not being able to hear.

Thanks,

I have a PS engineering PM 1200 in my yak52 TW, and have been very pleased with it, and would recommend it..

Walt,
I have been using Sigtronics high noise Warbird intercoms for the past 5
years and have absolutely nothing bad to report, I have plenty of
volume, absolutely no problems. I have the stereo version with music
inputs from a Ipod. I have put them in a 206, several CJ6's and 2 CJ5's
and never had a problem. A quick question, do you have the model with
the high noise warbird mod or the standard version? Not that it should
make a difference but I am using Sigtronics head sets and boom mics
also, maybe there is a problem with the mixing of your gear? I have
used my intercom with Light Speed and Bose and both gave great sound
with plenty of clarity and volume. Give them a call, I am sure they
will give you some pointers. If you do not have the high noise mod
maybe they can upgrade your unit. The Sigtronics SPA4SN is the two
place high noise version meant to be used in aircraft like the CJ6. The
owner of Sigtronics uses the same unit in his T-28.

Sigtronics 909-305-9399

Hope this helps,
Always Yakin,
Doug Sapp

The Sigtronics high-noise Warbird model didn't work for me either when I mixed headset brands. The PMA-4000 works a whole lot better and offers limited audio switching, all in a 2-1/2 " hole.

In my CJ, we use a "push-to-talk" intercom that comes with the radio. It is
not voice activated, but takes care of all the possible squelsh problems.

Fougapilot (Dan), I agree with you on this topic. The ptt intercom is perfect for the Yak.

We have an 18T and tried the softcom intercom, not a good idea!
We battled to install it and once it was in, we could not use it at the 82% cruise or aerobat power setting, or if any front windows were open.

Do you know if anyone has sucessfully linked this original intercom to the two back seats, on the 18T, with ptt buttons for the pax ?
