SimCom© works in simplex mode, this means that while you press your PTT (push to talk) button you don't hear anything from any of the other players, and while you don't press it you hear all the other players that do press there PTT. It has two channels, one is typically for communicating with your wingman or RIO and the other are for the whole group. The PTT is a three position switch, spring loaded to the center position. In center position you receive all thats going on on both channels and the other positions are for sending on channel one or two.
SimCom© is shareware (probably the only hardware shareware ?) and you may distribute these files as the contents are not changed or altered in any way. If you decide to build it, all we ask is that you send us a postcard.
If you send us US$10 we will E-mail you the PCB layout in HPGL and BMP format and the component placing in BMP format. If you prefer to, you can also buy it from us in different forms. If you send $20 we will mail you the PCB, the circuit board without components and without holes, add $10 if you want us to drill it for you. You can also buy the complete thing as a kit including headset or built and tested including headset, in both cases we do not include any box, casing or power supply, you will have to build it into a panel or something yourself. Contact us for prices.
We are not, and can not be held responsible for any damage or injury to any thing or person that might occur due to the use of or when building the SimCom©. If you are not familiar with building this type of electronics, find someone that can do it for you. We can not guarantee the function for SimComs not build and tested by us.
