Does anyone have any tips on how to avoid feedback from the intercom? It seems worse sometimes than others, I've tried playing around with the volume controls.

Thanks in advance

My TX1 intercom seems to work better when theres no mobile phones switched on when the intercom is in use.

It still makes me laugh when people lean forward and shout through the screen thinking its soundproof!!

My old fairway had a nice window directly behind my head so I could hear without any shouting going on. :cry:

Bless her.

Yes, tell them to switch of their recording devices. :lol: :lol: but is it a TX or a Metrocab, the latter were worse being fibreglass bodied, I think James Clerk Maxwell may have had the answer to this problem, somehow I think it is electromagnetic waves that cause the problem.

P.S how funny does drunken kissing sound when multiplied by a factor of twenty :lol: :lol:

Feedback is caused by having a microphone too near to the speaker.
So the answer is to try and move one or the other away.
Or, if you have access to the gubbings in the box there should be an ajustable control (veriable resistor) in there. this can also help to play with this.

Thanks for your replies. Mic and speaker are all as fitted by LTI. I do have my phone and hands free ( Bluetooth ) on at all times though.

It could be the Bluetooth. Just try the intercom without the bluetooth on for a while.
