Evening all. One of the wires on the FTM 110 intercom has a blue sleeve on the connector end (helmet), this related to the mike being lower but which is which? Is the Blue Navs side or drivers?

Thanks....

Well.......

I thought it was blue for drivers (and that's the way Mart Auskerin has his), but multiple independent tests* showed that blue was quieter so that's now the Nav's for me.

Don't you want the co-driver to be the louder of the two?

Yes - I meant blue was quieter hearing-wise not talking-wise

We tried swapping the head sets on a road section, massive difference. Drivers hearing volume is about double to the co's. Good job too

If you take the front of the unit off (4 screws), there is a little attenuation switch in there. There is no need to remove the PCB, its in one of the corners and very small. If you flick the switch over (with a small screwdriver), it will bring the drivers intercom level up to the same as the co-drivers.
