APDDave Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 I was wondering if anyone could give me some advice on weather this can be done. I have the BMW Comm Bluetooth system in my Shuberth helmet for my 2015 RT. I am going on a trip this fall with a friend on his Goldwing and he has the CB radio system built in. I want to find some way to talk with him on the ride, does someone make a handheld CB radio that could somehow be used to hook into my Bluetooth system and communicate with him. I have looked and not been able to find anything so far. Link to comment
Effjay Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 Paging new BMWST forum member "yattr" to the podium. Yo, Ed - where are you??? In the meantime, check out his related posts on 14 RT here... Link to comment
yattr Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 I do not know of any CB that supports bluetooth. Neither do I have a suggestion to get your hemet BT system to integrate with something that supports a CB. It would be cool if there was a BT transceiver out there that supported a headset on the BT side and hard wire for the mic and speaker on the CB side. This with a PTT and you would be there... I'll take a look at J&M... Link to comment
yattr Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 check out the Sena SR10 - BT 2-way radio adaptor... I had forgotten about this but it came back as I was poking around J&M... Link to comment
yattr Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 With the SR10, you could have your smart-phone via BT, the Alpine out (FM/SAT/GPS), the CB, and radar all integrated together. This assume that there is a stereo port other than Aux2 (for the smart-phone).... Link to comment
yattr Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 BTW, if you want a CB that will function well - and give you another stereo input - go for the JMCB2003. Get one off eBay. Read this WRT alternator noise http://www.bmwlt.com/forums/rt-series/132354-2014-rt-alternator-noise.html Link to comment
elkroeger Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 don't know if this fits your bill, but I've got a Midland 75-822, and I believe it has a earphone jack and a mic. jack. https://midlandusa.com/product/75-822cb-radio/ Link to comment
yattr Posted July 7, 2015 Share Posted July 7, 2015 There are only 2 ports in addition to the 2-way port. Aux1 is 3 pole (stereo) and Aux2 is 4 pole (stereo+mic, smart-phone).... Link to comment
Michael B Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Greetings APDDave. I have been using CB communication for quite a while using two Sena Bluetooth devices. My setup is a Sena SMH10 helmet device paired to a Sena SR10 bluetooth hub that is wired to a Cobra 38 WXST handheld CB that easily runs on battery power. The Sena SR10 also comes with a PTT button that plugs into a side port on the SR10. If you can pair your Suberth Comm system to the SR10, you're in business. The Cobra comes with a short rubber antenna that is good for a mile or so in range. You will need to somehow mount the CB to your handlebars or possibly carry it in a tank bag as a temporary arrangement. J&N also sells a CB setup that is wired to helmet speakers. Your problem may be in where and how to mount the system on your handlebars. Good luck! Link to comment
APDDave Posted July 8, 2015 Author Share Posted July 8, 2015 I also have another helmet fitted with a scala gx9, that might be an easier match. Link to comment
