Quick question....
I have a Yaesu (Vertex / Standard) VXA-220 radio.... it came with an adapter that allows two plug-ins. One for the headset and another for a PTT.
I'm doing some testing and learning how the radio operates.... my comtronics helmet cable doesn't fit well into the Vertex adapter.... Is this adapter made for another type of plug? I guess my question is.... is a Comtronics helmet different from a GA headset plug?
The fit is loose, and doesn't seem to seat all the way...... I have to hold the two cables together to get contact and reception, so obviously something is wrong.
I have two helmets from Comtronics.... both have the same problem. So I either have a bad cable from Vertex, or I need a different adapter because Comtronics is different from GA headsets.
Here's a pic... you can see the Comtronics cable into the Vertex on the far left.
Can someone with more experience comment, please?
