I'm not sure if this is the right newsgroup or not, BUT.... I'm looking for an intercom system to use with my wife so that we can talk to each other while riding my motorcycle. I envision a unit, similar to a Walkman, with two earplug/microphone units that fit inside of a helmet. I an not interested in a "radio" type of intercom; with my wife as the passenger and I as the driver, a "wired" set-up is preferred. I would prefer it to be battery operated, and I can devise an on/off switch which either of us can operate with our gloved hands. What is unique about this type of set-up is that the microphones need to be somewhat sensitive to not picking up alot of wind noise, and for the same reason, the earplugs must be loud enough to combat wind noise without our voices getting too distorted. I've also thought about installing Walkman type headphones into each helmet to enhance the audio quality. Anyway, this is what I am after. I expect that this will cost on the order to $50 to $150 depending upon quality...BUT I can't find anything on the market which meets my needs. Do you have any ideas? Thanks in advance, Randy
