----[Please read http://ercoupers.com/disclaimer.htm before following any advice in this forum.]---- When I purchased 93405, the PTT on the yoke was nonfunctional. I had to reach up each time to key the mike on the headset. It was a major pain in the posterior section. Seemed that whenever I need to key, I was busy trying to keep out of someone's way, or holding on for dear life. Never seemed to be convenient to reach up for the dash to key the mike. I love it now that the PTT's on the yoke are fixed. I don't have one on the dash anymore, but I do have one on each yoke.
