I have a pair of speakers in the cockpit coaming for the AM/FM radio..

I would like to figure out a way to connect the VHF external speaker to one
of these, so I can hear any calls on it in scan or monitoring of ch16.

Both radios are below deck so I can only hear them in the cockpit on a
remote speaker..

I know I could just use a toggle switch, but would prefer to find a way to
combine both outputs so the VHF would be heard over the AM/FM output.

Is there a simple way to do this and prevent one unit from harming the
other??

Steve-

I'm not exactly sure how it's done, but the aviation headset people (David
Clark in Massachusetts is very helpful) do this sort of thing as a matter of
course, ie a CD player works through the headset but radio transmissions
will override it. The principle is the same- I know the DC people will help
if you can't find an answer elsewhere. Or try the crowd at
rec.aviation.piloting

Yep! that would do it! ( but wouldn't everything be in French?? )

Seriously, does anyone know where this might be available in the US..

Just wire the VHF external speaker output to the remote speaker. It won't
hurt anything if you have both the am/fm radio and vhf on at the same time,
just difficult to understand so you will have to turn the volume down on one
or the other.

that's what I did about 13 yrs ago - never was a prob - connected the
vhf to one and the ssb to the other. added a couple of switches to
turn the cockpit connections on/off
