The Radio Splitter connects in-line with a Micro System headset, and any other items of equipment, and is particularly useful for connecting a second radio.

The splitter accepts interchangeable radio leads to connect to different radios. Each type of lead provides the correct physical connection for a particular radio and automatically configures the splitter to provide the appropriate electronic operation. By selecting and connecting the correct radio lead, the splitter can be used with any radio.

An integral PTT switch is provided to control radio transmissions and there is also the facility to connect an additional external PTT switch. The splitter provides an audible ‘Key Tone’ in the headset which confirms when either PTT switch is pressed or released.

In addition to the primary radio connection, the splitter can be connected simultaneously to most modern audio devices including mobile telephones, music players and sound or video recording equipment.

For connection to professional recording devices. the splitter provides audio output at both ‘Microphone Level‘ and ‘Line Level’. All of the sound that can be heard in the headsets can be recorded using this method.

During use. the splitter monitors the radio and automatically reduces the volume of the audio input during radio transmission and reception. This automatic mute feature provides radio priority over any telephone or music input. A buffer delay ho ds the mute on during radio exchanges and pauses in radio reception.

The splitter has a built-in belt clip and may be mounted permanently using Velcro. screws, tube clips or cable tie saddles.
