email from MixIt2 owner John Brown advises the Zumo is problematic and won't work because of the J&M
email from Gary at AmpliRider advises his will work fine, just need an isolation connection cable for the mono Radar Detector
there's no "priorty" circuit that allows one device to "override" another, but I like it that way and can discern each without cutting out
another with separate volume settings...that's how it works now except the J&M has the CB on priority over the aux stuff.
guess need to call Kennedy Motorcycle Items as recommended by Aasland

Hello Mike,
It's good to hear from you! Thank you for being interested in the
AmpliRider. I am very honored that you would consider this amp to hep combine
some of the devices into a single output.
If you plugged the AmpliRider's output into the JMCB2003's AUX input jack then
that would enable you to mix three inputs through the amp and into that AUX
jack.
You could plug the Zumo, Adaptiv detector, and iPhone (or the MP3 player) into
the amp and this should all work great.
I should mention though, I believe the Adaptive (like Escort, Valentine, and
Bel radar detectors) would need to pass through an isolation transformer in
order to make them compatible with the AmpliRider. This is because it doesn't
have a typical three wire stereo output (left,right,ground), but a mono
ungrounded one instead.
These devices will both work fine connected directly to a speaker but not when
plugged into a conventional amp. I noticed that other companies who build amps
for motorcycle riders have faced this problem too. I offer these isolation
transformers built into a cable for a parts only cost of $15.
The AmpliRider is being offered directly for the price of U.S. $65 and this
already includes the cost to deliver the amp to your address in Metairie by
fully insured, Airmail shipping.
Well keep in touch and let me know what you think Mike. If you have any
questions I will be glad to help you. Thank you once again for being interested
in this amplifier.
Have a nice evening Mike!

Hi Mike... that's a lot of stuff! The difficulty I see is
the J&M CB and Zumo/iPhone combo. The problem being: the J&M headset is
needed for the CB, but won't work with the Zumo and the Zumo/iPhone
combo needs one of the BT headsets but won't work with the J&M headset.
The Mix-It2 would combine your TPX (via headphone jack) and MP3 signals
to the J&M. It might be a good start to inquire with J&M about
combining an iPhone/Zumo with their CB - they have the mic and speaker
already, maybe they have a way to integrate those devices also?
