Master Communication Kits are complete radio and intercom kits without custom vehicle mounts. The radio comes with basic mounting brackets, making this kit perfect for custom builds or upgrading your comms when you already have your radio mount. 

Talk between passengers, communicate with other vehicles, listen to music and make phone calls - our complete communication kits do it all! The 696 PLUS Remote Head intercom has all the features of our best-selling 696 PLUS in a compact package that fits in all standard rocker switch holes.

The enhanced Bluetooth module provides True High-Fidelity audio - and can be controlled using the remote head, rocker switch interface for total cell phone & music control.

Ready to talk to other vehicles in your group? Simply press the included PTT (push-to-talk) on the steering wheel or grab-bar to transmit. The music automatically dims during conversation, making communication a truly hands free experience.

Features:

• Rocker Switch Intercom: All your intercom controls in the size of a rocker switch
• In-Car Communication: Talk to passengers directly through headsets or helmet kits. No more yelling. 
• Enhanced Bluetooth Connectivity: Enjoy high-fidelity voice and music
• Complete Controls: Play, pause, skip tracks, answer calls, or hang up a call

NOTE: The center conductor inside the NMO antenna stud is not solid metal and can be damaged if overtightened. As shown in the photo above, when installing the NMO nut, we recommend holding the wrench vertically to reduce torque and overtightening.

Radio Options:

GMRS or Business Band? Experience long range communication between vehicles or vehicle to base camp. GMRS radios are easy to use and works with all GMRS and FRS radios operating on the same channel. Business Band (VHF) radios are recommended for business and race applications. Not sure which one is right for you? Learn more here.

Notes:
• 
If the M1-V radio is not mounted within one foot of the 696 intercom deck, a 5-pin extension is required to link the radio and intercom together.
• Optional headsets and wired helmets are available as an add-on.

    The intercom works very well. However, I'm disappointed with the product. The two headsets don't match. There are differences in the design of the mike boom and color, etc. Also I don't like the behind the head style of headset. The clamping pressure is a bit too much and on longer rides the pressure on our ears begins to hurt and we have to take the headsets off. The cord from the headsets is a straight wire and seems to get in the way a lot, I wish it was a coiled wire.

    The folks at Rugged radio are the best - they respond to your emails and they will return your call! Very helpful! The intercom system I received was well packaged and shipped in a timely fashion - and after installing it - well worth the price -
