if it is........
since i want to do it externally i just use 2 1/8 plug jacks....
install ONE resistor across the 2 hot/center conductors comming out the spkr and pa jack......
then connect the speaker to the spkr side normally (ignoring the resistor going to the pa side) ? is this correct ?
if so i could also just unplug the pa plug to turn off the talk back.....correct ???

sorry if i seem anal but i sure dont want to buy this and then kill it . i really appreciate the hand holding guys . it kind of reminds me of learning to do up grades on the computer . i was so afraid of killing it when i added that first stick of ram by myself and then later added that new graphics card (and drivers) . now i build and fix them for friends and family .
NO IT GOES ACROSS THE GROUNDS, NOT THE HOT.

Here's what I did, I bought a Cobra HG 500 with talk back and disassemble it,
and installed the talkback circuit board inside a speaker similar to switch kit's the only soldering that is done is to the better speaker.

Booty or anyone else, Concerning this universal talkback. I saw your review and I wish you could have used it on air so I coulkd hear how much volume it had when down to 0. Also has anyone tried to make one yet? any schematics out there? I bought one of these and hooked it up to my uniden 68 eleite and no-go. didnt work at all! I was furious! Any idea on how to build a universal talkback with pot and on-off switch? sounded like you were on the right track!
