A single-seat short-course driver may need to hear race control while communicating with a spotter on another radio. One radio connection alone does not separate those two communication paths. Universal fit - not built for one specific make or model, so confirm mounting space and wiring on your machine before ordering. The dual radio splitter connects two compatible radios at the same time. Its tan cable carries listen-only audio, while its black cable handles transmitting and listening.

FAQ
Can I transmit through the tan cable?
No. The tan cable is listen-only; the black cable handles transmitting and listening.
Which cable connects to the radio used for two-way communication?
Use the black cable for the radio used to transmit and listen.
How many radios can the splitter connect at once?
It connects two radios at the same time: one for listening only and another for transmitting and listening.
When is this splitter useful for a short-course driver?
Choose this splitter when the driver needs to listen to race control and communicate with a spotter using separate radio paths.
Does this splitter work with a Rugged Radios GMR5?
Yes. The GMR5 is listed as compatible; check the other radio against the compatibility list too.
Why Rugged Radios
Rugged Radios uses a tan listen-only cable and a black transmit-and-listen cable to distinguish the two radio paths.
