Another intercom question
Hey guys as anyone had problems with the intercom seeming like has a short?
I have a half helmet with J&m headset and have use the cb a lot with no issues and also no issues with the phone but I just bought 2 J&m 629 elite headsets and use mine solo yesterday for phone, again no issues but today with my wife and I trying to use the intercom it cuts in and out and on the intercom screen there is a icon that lights up when in use, it lights up up and cuts out like if the ptt button is pushed but is not from either one of us and then I disconnected one at a time but still does it I then left left mine hard wired turn the intercom off and use the phone with no problem!!!
Is this sound like a short? if so why am I able to use the phone? Is it a bad headset? again I can use the phone with it.
Any suggestions?
Thanks

Sounds like you need to adjust the VOX so it will be more sensitive. We had some similar issues as well. Finally found VOX needed to be turned almost all the way up, then the 'noise' in the ear piece could be adjusted via the volume for the headset.

Like the rest, I think you have your VOX set - so if it is low and you talk it does not completely activate - so, it will cut in and out.
I prefer to use the PTT switch with the intercom.

and the CB does what?
Those who use the PTT button for the intercom: Is your VOX set so that your voice NEVER activates the intercom? What happens if you have your CB on and the Intercom? Are you transmitting CB with every Intercom conversation?
