Hello,
Searched around and can't seem to find the answer I am looking for.
I have a TK790H and a KCH10 remote head with the internal speaker.
A jumper is installed on the 9 pin Molex connector across pins 3 & 6; the speaker on the KCH10 currently functions as intended.
I would like to add an external speaker in addition to the speaker on the KCH10... but am not sure which route to take or if it is even possible.
Ideally, both speakers would be hooked up and active at the same time, allowing incoming communication to be heard from inside or outside of the vehicle the radio is mounted in.
On the 9 pin Molex, can pins 3 & 6 be jumped while pins 2 & 6 are being used for an external speaker or is it one or the other?
On the 12 pin Molex, can pins 10 & 11 be used for an external speaker without disconnecting the KCH10 internal speaker?
In the programming software I have, I see an option to allocate a button for "speaker int/ext", which to my understanding would allow me to toggle the speaker output to pins 7 & 8 on the 9 pin Molex (?). This is listed as a PA output though... so am I correct in thinking that I will be unable to transmit out while using the external speaker in this mode?
Are there any other options that I am missing?
Thank you in advance
