Komunica AV-1 KM Yaesu 6-pin hands-free
Car hands-free kit with gooseneck microphone and latching PTT, Yaesu 6-pin wiring (MH-48) for FT-7800, FT-8800, FTM-400 and similar
The AV-1 KM is a hands-free car kit: a microphone on a long gooseneck fixed to the sun visor and a latching PTT box that attaches to the gear lever. This version has Yaesu 6-pin wiring compatible with the MH-48 microphone.
Product description
The latching PTT just needs a light touch, with the same movement as changing gear, and a red LED shows its status to avoid unintentional transmissions. Up/Down can also be operated from the PTT box; if the radio has VOX, it can be used.
The microphone is a unidirectional electret, powered from the radio's microphone socket, with adjustable gain: close to the mouth it suppresses most cabin noise. Installation requires no soldering.
Key features
Latching PTT on the gear lever.
Microphone close to the mouth, without blocking the view.
For FT-7800, FT-8800, FTM-400 and others.
Installation
The microphone must be mounted under the sun visor bolt: check that it is firmly fixed, that the cable is routed safely and that it does not obstruct the view.
