Use PTT button to activate aftermarket CB Radio?

[jcthorne]

Has anyone figured out how to use the PTT button on the handlebar to activate the transmit function on an aftermarket CB radio like the Midland? Its the only missing piece to assemble a functional CB system integrated with our SENA headsets.

Thanks for any suggestions.

It may be difficult. I know on the 2010 RT, the PTT button went through the computer, as it had a programming problem that held the mic hot for 2-3 seconds after releasing the button. The fix was to replace the instrument cluster (dash display) with the newer 2011 cluster, which was programmed properly.

All that is to say,it may not be an easy task since it goes through a computer.

I would PM Dr Buck, he wired the PTT to a Ham radio on his 2012 RTL. http://www.spyderlovers.com/forums/...DR-Buck-s-2012-RT-Limited-Mods&highlight=buck
