After 130 hrs with the FlightCom 403 Intercom, I've decided it's pretty much unable to handle my intercom needs. There are two solutions: Going with the new Garmin radio with its built-in Intercom, or getting the new Dynon radio and Intercom After studying the new Garmin radio, that might be my best choice going forward, but I sort of dread yet another reworking of everything behind the panel.
A Third option is out there - the SL-40 has a built-in Intercom, currently unused in the RV-12. Reports from others have dismissed the SL-40 Intercom as "poor." Well, so is the FlightCom intercom!
Has anyone used the SL-40 Intercom in their -12? If so, how was it? And how would you go about activating it and bypassing the 403?
