Hi folks,

I'm new to airplane ownership. I have a standard '99 172R and a Garmin GPSMAP 396.

What's the best way for me to pipe in my portable audio to the headset circuit, yet have the audio interrupted if I key the mike or receive an incoming transmission?

I've seen intercom type products in the online pilot shops that look like they may be what I want, but I don't know a lot about it.

Any recommendations? It would be nice if all 4 headset positions could get the music, but the pilot and front passenger as a minimum. Do I need to spend a ton of money for this?

Thanks!
