Hi,
I have a strange problem in my RV. Whenever my Bose headset is plugged into the right side of the plane, sometimes there is HUGE feedback in the intercom. This problem does not occur if I use the bose from the pilot side jacks and use the lightspeed from the right side.
If the feedback is occuring, sometimes it can be fixed by very slightly moving the mic plug in the connector.
I've double checked all the connections, but now I'm curious about one thing. The bose has four seperate contact areas on the mic plug, the lightspeed only has three. Does anyone here know what the four different contacts are for? The Bose manual doesn't address this and customer service is closed today.
See the following crummy cameraphone picture:
Top is my lightspeed mic plug - presumably tip, ring and ground.
Bottom is the Bose - this photo is crummy but you can see there are four seperate sections, two on the tip, a recessed ring and then ground.
