Didn't there used to be blue tooth problems on G4's and G5's? Like you would get a beeping sound on every transmission or it wouldn't connect to certain blue tooth versions? Has all this been corrected?
My G5 and U3 will pair to my Plantronics 5200 (only thing I can get them to pair with!), but the profile they use causes the earpiece to emit it's own answer phone call beep, not coming from the radio, but they trigger it in the earpiece. Makes it pretty much unusable, unless you like hearing BAH BAH BOOP in your ear everytime someone talks.
What about those of us that want full sound from a bookshelf speaker? I can't stand ear buds or ear phones. I run all my scanners through a nice mixer and to an amp. All my scanners sound great, but the best quality radio I own has problems getting the audio from the radio to a speaker. It's really frustrating.If you want a cheap solution this Bluetooth headset is around 20 bucks works real well with the Unication and is available at your local Walgreens.

Have you disabled "BT Headset Incoming Call Notification" on tab D8 in PPS?
Yes, it is unchecked, but as I said, it triggers a built in alert tone in the headset itself, it is not a transmitted tone. It is the same BAH BAH BOOP sound I get when I accidentally bump the inop PTT button on my flip phone and it connects to the headset.
I have a question for you, how do the AfterShokz behave in a loud noise environment?You have the best radio get the best BT ! These let you listen to the Unication completely discretely via your cheekbone with bone induction technology and still talk to people using your ears. I absolutely love them.

I have a question for you, how do the AfterShokz behave in a loud noise environment?
From previous experience pairing a couple of BT devices to my G4, I found out that the volume control on the BT devices don't increase the audio output from the G4 BT.
I know the AS come with earplugs, so I guess that, if outside noise is pretty loud you can plug your ears and still hear the AS, I'm just wondering just how much loud outside noise gets before the AfterShokz become useless?
I have some hearing loss so every solution I have sought involve an in ear or very loud speaker to help me discern audio coming off the G4.
Man! They should fix this. I'm debating between an SDS200 and a G5. And I really don't want an SDS. But no headphone jack and blue tooth problems makes this an issue. In the car, I wanna replay the G5 out the stereo speakers. Maybe there's some kinna blue tooth receiver that can plug into the aux USB and then the car can play that (the car has no 3.5mm stereo aux).
