1.10.4 Monitor Only Station (MOS)
The MOS is a receive-only unit that allows personnel, such as infantry squad
members, to be briefed over the intercom channel. The MOS receives and
processes the audio signal through the highway cable. A loudspeaker (LS) may
be attached to the HEADSET connector of the MOS for listen-only
communication. The MOS unit allows independent control of audio volume level.
