Hey Bob & everybody -

I've got a Garmin 430, 330, and my own "box" (moving map & stereo music
for our discussion here). I also have audio from an RST Marker Beacon,
maybe a warning tone or two, and in the future perhaps from a Nav 122D.
I have no audio panel, and a NAT stereo intercom. The NAT has balance
controls so I can have COM more in the left ear, and intercom more in
the right ear.

Should I just build the iso amp project as a mono board and use it to
combine NAV and warning tones and pipe that into that NATs "aux" audio
input? And then run my box's output to NAT's music in, and COM direct
to the NAT?

Thanks for any help on this -

Well, first you need to think about what you want to do. How many audio
sources do you have? Which ones do you want to be able to switch on and
off? (To be honest, you will probably want to be able to switch all your
audio sources.) Which ones are stereo and which are mono? Which ones do
you want to have precedence? Some audio panels will drop the volume or
mute some source when others become active, e.g. music will mute when
you receive something on the comm.

What about integrating a handheld or a cell phone? Every audio system I
do in the future will have provision to patch in a cell phone so I can
make a call while using the standard aircraft headsets as I often end up
sitting at the end of a runway waiting for an IFR release over the phone
from FSS.

Then you need to think about how you are going to handle transmitters.
Do you have two comms? Do you want to be able to use them separately,
i.e. with the left seat talking on comm one while the right seat is
talking on comm two?

Lay out your logic for what goes where then we can tackle how to do it.
