Intercom - Radio Shack
 

Anyone ever tried this intercom system on a boat?

I want to use them for poker runs and longer trips. It costs $250 which is much cheaper than a get up like Racing Communications or Boat Communications.

:drool:

I bought the same system from racing electronics here in charlotte for 235. The system works pretty good . You will have to do some mods to make it work correctly in the boat. Give me a call 704-634-9004

Hum, getting ready to race?????

Pesonally, if it does not have a good noise cancelling microphone, you will only be frustrated. When you are on a boat the wind on the mike is the problem.

Throat mikes would solve that problem. Suprisingly they actually sound very realistic.

Vagrant, I bought the same unit from RE I haven used them much but what mods did you do ?

Cord is right on!
After having all kinds of intercom problems, we, (Cord and Island Hopper) installed our new intercom system from Revolution Maring Inc. in the P4-78 race boat just before Milwaukee, (Thanks Guys!)
It works great! It uses throat mikes and has no "instalation" in the helmets.
It's a sweet setup. Check for more details at
