• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

How does it work ?

I think you have to have the factory CB system. Someone else will jump in and correct me if I'm not right. The PTT means ( Push To Talk )
 
It attaches to the flux capacitor. If you push the "Push to Transport" button exactly at 60 mph you my make that restaurant reservation on time.:roflblack:
 
"Push to Talk"? :dontknow:

Mine doesn't work correctly :shocked:: I never push it, yet my Missus talks ALL of the time! :banghead:

No think needed. The PTT does nothing without the factory CB installed. So far none of us has been able to come up with any sort of addon that would make use of it.
 
I may put a mobile ham radio in my bike this next winter!! I would think I could convert the CB harness to a ham radio. Big question is antenna. I could probably mount it in the CB antenna spot. Could be a fun project!!

If you figure this out, let everyone know! It's not just a harness, it is integrated into the CB radio electronics, so you can change channels, etc.. from the handlebar controls.

The PTT switch is connected to the CAN BUS, and is pretty much useless outside of the BRP CB, from what I can tell.

I think it can be done, but you have to figure out how the communication connection between the CB and audio unit works. The PTT , the audio unit, and the cluster are all connected to the CanBus. The CB is connected to the audio unit only. When you push PTT the left handlebar module sends a command via CanBus to the audio unit which then sends a transmit signal to the CB. I think it may just be a steady high signal. The reason I think this is because the passenger PTT, which is a button on the headset cord, closes a separate circuit to the CB.

A complication you have to take into account is the fact the headsets connect into the CB unit. All the audio from the audio unit goes to the headset via the CB. The CB is also the intercom unit.
