[simpits-tech] OT: Three-place intercom

[Brian Sikkema]

Hey Guys,

As I mentioned earlier, my father has a 1971 Deuce-and-a-half Army cargo 
truck which he is fixing up. I will probably be working on it quite a bit 
this summer, and hopefully we will have it completely restored by the time I 
get back to college next fall. However, the thing is EXTREMELY loud, and the 
cab offers little protection from the noise, as it is just a fabric roof and 
rear. What my dad would like to do is build a three-person intercom system 
which uses aircraft headsets, so that the people in it could have the 
required hearing protection, and still be able to communicate easily. Does 
anyone have any thoughts on this?

Oh, which reminds me. A while back someone posted plans to convert the 
standard aircraft microphone jack to 1/8". I've got a working copy of it 
myself, so I don't necessarily need the plans again, but what I do need is 
the Mouser part # of the microphone jack. So if whoever posted that could 
send it out again I'd appreciate it.

Thanks again,
Brian
