ASA PUSH-TO-TALK SWITCH
|
|
|
A portable push-to-talk switch (PTT) for use with any general aviation headset, intercom, and radio. Features a lifetime warranty! Weight .90lbs Good communications are essential to a successful flight. This convenient switch mounts to the yoke with a velcro strap, allowing pilots to use their thumb to push the button and communicate with ATC, Unicom, or other aircraft. This eliminates the distraction of picking up the microphone, for hands-free communications that keeps pilots focused on flying the aircraft. Particularly useful for rental aircraft, which typically might not have push-to-talk switches installed. Features include:

I bought the push to talk about a year ago, and it worked pretty good. Then it started getting static through it and I would have to play with the headset jack to make it stop, only to have the static come back. Being an instructor I have many students that have these in there own aircraft and almost all of them have the same problem with the headset jack being loose and making static. |

the female mike plug is a loose fit and static occures |

I have a Taylorcraft with an in-panel intercom and David Clark headsets and I have used this PTT with for about a year. I finally switched to a Lightspeed ANR headset and the mic jack on the PTT doesnt seem to fit that HS correctly and I have to constantly monitor it. The HS mic plug will fall out or cause static in the device. I have adjusted the internal connections in the PTT but the headset mic plug still is loose. I thought all this stuff was standard. Until I used this new HS, it seemed to be fine. |

Purchased this and the inlet hole (female) is to large and my Bose headset plug or any other do not stay in and headset will not work. Have to get a better one. Found this out on the first trip, was not fun had to hold the male from my headset in, in order to talk. |

Good solution for right seat communications over back up Mic |
|
I bought this PTT switch this week and on delivery placed it straight in my plane. It doesnt work, the female plug is too large and as such doesnt make a reliable connection. I cant use this PTT at all as it isnt reliable to talk on. Read the comments below, they are true. Dont buy this product. |

I had some Mic Comm issues and needed a standby PTT to make things work and avoid Class C space. Didnt have one but I do now. Cheap, SMART Ins!!! |
|
Worked for a month. Connection to Bose headset at the interface became sloppy and communications are now sporadically engaged... |
|
I should have read the reviews first, because I am having the exact same problem as some other people- the female headset jack is too loose so I am getting alot of static. It was driving me crazy until I figured out it was this switch. I had to hold the plug in just a certain way to make the static go away. |

I bought this headset jack and installed it in my plane. Our jacks are hard-wired to the console so I cut the jack wire and wired it in. Seems to work great and I have had zero problems with it. |

Functions exactly as promised - I tried a lesser-priced PTT from another vendor, albeit one that cost 1/2 as much, but it did not work with stereo headsets properly with my digital panel. This switch works well with all my headsets plugged into a PMA450 intercom. The switch itself is lower-profile, and thus less conspicuous on the yoke. Good strap for placement that stays put. So -- purchase this knowing it will work. Did for me. |

The female jack is of poor quality. The mic jack from the headset plugging into it is loose and causes static or it to not work at all. Returned it to ASA for warranty replacement. Which they did, but the second one is just as bad. They have a real quality problem as it seems many others have seen the same problem. Too bad, I like the low profile switch. |
|
as with the other reviews, the connection is very loose fitting causing static, very annoying, probably cut off and hard wire. would not recommend this product. |
|
I bought one of these to replace an identical switch with the common issue of a loose connection on the plug (I wish I would have read the other reviews before I ordered it!). Same issue as the one I intended to replace. I ended up replacing both of my switches with a different brand. Dont waste your money on this switch. |
|
Although I dont like a PTT strapped to the yoke this one seems to stay put and is easy to use. Otherwise it does the job as it is intended to so Im satisfied with it. |
Will this PTT switch allow the mic to pass through to a panel mounted intercom? I have a different push to talk switch, but the mic is disabled unless the button is pressed.
This is all base on the wire diagram on your intercom. We recommend this PTT with use of a portable intercom as you will see these type of PTT used in the portable intercom diagram. For panel mount intercoms we recommend stick/yoke mount PTT.
What size plug does the ASA Push to Talk switch work with?
This switch is intended for use with standard general aviation size dual plugs. Should be standard .206" microphone plug.
