Re: [ST] Audio set ups.



I'll chime in on this and also recommend the Autocomm.  Pretty nice setup
and with 2 inputs, one for phone, the other for iPAQ PDA with GPS and
Windows Media player for tunes.  I get Music, Voice Direction, and Phone.
The phone cuts out the music when a call comes in.

Also, the Autocomms work with just about any FRS style 2-way radio so you
can get passenger to passenger and bike to bike.

Oh yeah, the Autocomm survived being run over by my wife's Jeep when she
unknowingly bumped it off the garage shelf.

Stay away from the chatterbox bike to bike systems.  No range, bad speakers,
poor reception.
