Whilst I’m on here does anyone have a Cardo Scalia and a Tomtom rider. I bought a Cardo Q3 and rider v5 to keep on the Alp. The tomtom recognises the scala but I’m not hearing guidance through the comms. It’s making phone calls which works with the headset and boom mike. I’m missing something (nothing from you there ta Mac :lol: ) but not sure what!
Kev, it might be as simple as having to turn the volume up, I have scala and garmin, but found that I need to set the volume for each separate input. Passenger comms, music, gps and phone all need adjusted separately , but you can only do that when they are the active channel!
Well done Al, I was mucking about with them on the bike today and as you said each channel needs to be adjusted individually. Thanks fella.

I thought I would try and be helpful before going straight to the old age jokes about turning your hearing aid up :P

Home early & it's not raining !


So pulled the rear plastics off Custurd, tested a indi relay for someone...

Adjusted the rear brake light switch so it comes on without having to stand on the pedal, as pointed out on the MOT, noticed one of the tail bulbs had given up the struggle, swapped & tested. Boxed it back up ready for a probably damp run in tomorrow morn...

What lovely nail varnish you're using these days, Wicky.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.
