SPLIT-COM MODE

NOTE: Split COM performance is affected by the distance between the COM antennas and the separation of the tuned frequencies. If the selected COM frequencies are too close together, interference may be heard during transmission on the other radio.

During Split-COM operation, both the pilot and the copilot can transmit simultaneously over separate radios.

Pressing both MIC Keys simultaneously initiates Split-COM Mode (i.e., COM1/COM2). The respective COM1/MIC1 or COM2/MIC2 annunciators are illuminated indicating Split-COM operation. Split-COM operation is cancelled by pressing one of the selected MIC Keys again.

In Split-COM mode, the pilot is uses COM1 and the copilot is uses COM2.
