laytonl Posted November 17, 2022 Report Posted November 17, 2022 Not necessarily related to our Mooney’s, but I just installed a PAR200B radio/intercom in my Citabria. I chose this radio because of the panel space limitations in the Citabria. The radio is remotely mounted which saved space. Of course I knew the PS engineering intercom would be good but I have been presently surprised at the quality of the radio. It sound better than the radio in my GTN650. - end of my product review- Lee 11

David Lloyd Posted November 17, 2022 Report Posted November 17, 2022 Put one in my Mooney. Like other PS Engineering audio panels, set up the volumes and it just works. I had another brand in the RV, was always fiddling with the volume for either the radio or intercom. 2
Mscheuer Posted November 28, 2022 Report Posted November 28, 2022 Thank you Lee for entrusting us with your audio control. Your panel looks GREAT and the weight you saved by going the PAR200B route, well, I bet you'll get a few more degrees/sec in your rolls! Mark Scheuer PS Engineering
PT20J Posted November 28, 2022 Report Posted November 28, 2022 Nice panel, Lee. The Citabria is such a fun airplane.
Schinderhannes Posted November 29, 2022 Report Posted November 29, 2022 I am in the process of installing a PAR200 as well. Haven’t flown it yet, but when testing the harness in my workshop yesterday I was super impressed. I always test radios tuning to the PSP ATIS 5NM from my house using a RST dipole antenna on the bench. The PAR200 is the first radio I have tested with the audio being crystal clear with squelch on. In comparison the Garmin 430 received only a weak signal with squelch off using the same antenna. The only thing probably better than the sound quality of PSE products is their customer service. Recently I send an email inquiry to their general mailbox late on a Friday afternoon and was totally surprised that Mark S. called me a short time later to discuss my questions. Frank 2
