Want purchase NEW 4 place intercom

Post by MoonlightVFR »

I have a decades old 4 place intercom that works but the quality of the cabling insulation was inferior.

Insulation cracked, crumbled fell off.
Perhaps some one has studied current availability and can advise what the Best deal is today.

I tried and I tried

Aircraft Chieftain and Aircraft Spruce...

Avionics staff left for the day promise call back Monday morning.

A/S catalog (22016-17)has a lot to say but a simple 4 place intercom ... text talking CD, cassette input ; seems dated.

It's not the cheapest but the PS Engineering PMII is what I have and have good things to say about it. I also have their 6 place audio-panel version in a 172 which works very well.

You’ll probably want one with bluetooth capability so you can talk on your cell phone and listen to iheart radio, or podcasts thru your headsets. It’s really nice to have that.

You can also get that capability with a plug-in bluetooth accessory as well, like a BluLink, just more wires involved.

I have selected Sigtronics Transcom 3

SPO-43

It is apparently out of stock - darth of user information...

Reviews about 4 place intercoms - light.

Will be happy if it shows up 5 weeks
