[PSUBS-MAILIST] Comms for the SeaQuestor Sub

[David Colombo via Personal_Submersibles]

Hi Alan, my plan is to use the ssb2010 with headset in the sub and the
St101 on the surface with headset. Once I get all the pieces I plan on
running some experiments on the volume and headset control. I have access
to 6 mics, and 6 transducers at a pretty decent price. So i may grow my
inventory to play  with . My 101 showed up today, and i should have the
2010 and headsets later this week.

Alan, the transducer is potted very well.  I suspect it is capable of going
much deeper than the 500 foot maximum the SSB-2010 unit is rated for.
Cliff has one mounted on R-300 and got it down to 400 feet with no issues.

Thanks Jon & Alec,
I see the transducer for sale.....
https://www.uswaterrescue.com/TC_35S_Transducer_Cable_p/o-tc-35s.htm
for $209-. Or $189- for the shorter cable at
http://oceantechnologysystems.mwrc.net/en/product.php?product_id=44912
The conversion kit I mentioned is $729- & only has the headset & transducer.
So if that $189- transducer plugs in to the SB 2010 you could do the
conversion
for under $250 using Alec's piece of electronics on an alternative headset.
Double the savings in my case if I go for a converted SB 2010 for a surface
unit.
Alec, If that electronics is just the push to talk function would it be
something
like a single pole double throw momentary switch. That would mean you push
the button & there is a connection to the mike & a break in connection
to the headset. Or is it more complicated than that? Don't want to get you
to pull your unit apart.
Jon, thanks for that info. I am now leaning heavily toward 2 x SB 2010.
If anyone knows what depth the transducers are rated for I would be
interested.
I have seen ratings for the SB 2010 but not the transducer.
Cheers Alan
