I have a mgl v10 comm that is intercom and radio, been good for a decade.
Decided to upgrade to a Garmin GTR200B that is the same in that it is radio, plus intercom so one stand alone unit, no separate audio panel.
Basic vfr bird.
Question for those that know products out there...
If i dont want to spend $1000 plus on an audio panel, but i would like to leave both stand alone radio/intercom units in plane is there a box i can buy that would allow me to wire both in and pick one or the other?
I will use the Garmin 100 percent of the time as it has blue tooth etc, but if it ever let me down, flipping a switch and sending juice to the MGL as my back up would be perfect instead of reaching for a handheld. Ideally a box that allowed antennae and power etc from two radios to go in, and me flip a switch to power comm one or two would be ideal without a fancy $1200 box, second antennae etc. Anyone know of a solution?
