Listers,
Is anyone with the Garmin SL-30 nav-comm using the built-in intercom?
If so, is it acceptable? Or do you recommend buying a separate intercom?
Is squelch a problem? Do you have control over squelch? Is there a means to
input music? Is there a muting function?
All advice appreciated.

Stan, this was discussed at length over on the RV forums
(www.vansairforce.net). From all accounts, it useable, but the first time
you experience a *real* intercomm, you'll want one. Smile...

Depends on what you want for features, aux inputs, quality, conveniences
(like squelch, etc). For the little extra money, it sure seems most suggest
to put in a dedicated intercomm. But I'd suggest you go read the comments
over there.

I will have an SL-30, but I'm also going to put in a dedicated audio
panel/intercomm.

Alan

Short answer ...

Get the intercom and make sure it is stereo with a music input.

Lots of reason covered in archives.

I went separate because I want to be able to easily adjust level and
squelch. Getting to these parameters in in the SL-30 set-up screen is an
annoyance.

Stan,

I use the SL-30 intercom and it's acceptable with my Bose and David Clark headsets. Doesn't work at all well with the LightSpeed ANR headset that my buddy has though.

Someone mentioned that it's tough to control volume and squelch. True because those items are buried a few menu levels "down" from the main screen.

There is no music function and no muting function.

I eventually plan to get an intercom.
