XLR8 Posted June 27, 2017 Report Share Posted June 27, 2017 We're looking to piece together a radio system that will work at COTA. We had previously used an analog system but it won't reach past turn 3 until turn 18 or so. Anyone have used ones or know of a deal? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Sampson Posted June 27, 2017 Report Share Posted June 27, 2017 Hi Xlr8 If you are looking to go digital, You have a few options. Do you have a current IMSA system? If so, you can just upgrade the radios (both) to digital for about $400 or with your 15% chump discount you can have a complete brand new system digital system for around $800. http://www.sampsonracing.com/Digital-Starter-5watt-Package-for-2way-complete-p/digital-starter-package.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skierman64 Posted June 27, 2017 Report Share Posted June 27, 2017 It doesn't work well at COTA because of the large concrete structure behing the pits. Will digital be better Shawn? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Sampson Posted June 27, 2017 Report Share Posted June 27, 2017 We have run there twice with that same digital system and its been perfect. We do run the roof mount antenna set up which always the radio to be mounted down low on the tunnel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianpeele94 Posted June 27, 2017 Report Share Posted June 27, 2017 We used an SRC digital system at COTA this year. We had complete coverage around the track. We are using their shark fin style roof antenna. For us, the upgrade to digital has shown substantial communication improvements at most of the track we have been to (not so much Daytona).

jkrueger Posted July 6, 2017 Report Share Posted July 6, 2017 If you want to spend the money for a motorolla system we bought our digital system from Speedcom.com. They have great noise canceling mics that are propriety to them. We could hear all around COTA like the driver was standing next to us and no car/engine noise.
