Jack H.,

 

   Was it you that tried the noise cancelling earbuds  from Radio Shack? I 

can't get mine to work on my Icom radio unless I hold  it about half way in the 

jack  at the top of the radio?

 

         What gives?

No that was me. I suspect that you are experiencing the mono source with 

stereo earphone problem. You will need to get a mono to stereo adapter that 

will get both earbuds talking.

     Rick,

 

 When I plug the Earbuds into the Icom  the little green light on  the radio 

turns red and there is no sound at all unless I pull the plug out to  just the 

right point then you can hear.   The plug in adapter from  Icom has Four 

different contacts on the male plug compared to three on a  standard stereo plug.  

  Does your set work on one side when you  plug it into your radio? 

I  get nothing from mine with the plug all the way in.

Your Icom appears to have a nonstandard plug. They must offer an adapter 

that will get you to the standard three contact connector. I plug my earbuds 

into my intercom and yes I had to buy a mono to stereo adapter to get both 

earbuds to work.

Rick,

  After looking at the headphone adapter I think I have figured out to  set 

up to hear in coming messages. Now I want to be able to transmit. I dont  quite 

have that one figured out. I see how to hook up a remote push to talk  

switch, but I dont know where to start to find an external microphone that would  

work over the noise of the rotax. Are you able to transmit with your set up? I  

have the Icom IC-A5 handheld if that helps you any. I guess if all else  fails 

I could get one of those headsets like John H has

I use my earbuds under a set of aviation headsets and everything is 

connected to my radio. My problem was my engine is so loud that I wanted 

some extra noise dampening for my ears. I used to wear ear plugs but 

couldn't hear the radio very well. With the earbuds I can hear and if cuts 

the noise just enough.
