    Turns out this helps, but not totally. I should have done more testing before posting.

    Slightly better. Not fixed for me either. I use Shure SE215 in-ear monitors.

    I know that I did have static with the antenna up; I never tried with it in the down position, so can only imagine that it's much worse.

    (Static only appears when using earbuds, not the Sena speakers.)

    Yeah, I've been trying everything. Should've just stuck with my SMH10.

    Thanks the Antenna up fix helped my BT connection to my Bike's audio and the music sharing to the second headset.

    I think that the "static" issue is actually that the earbud cable is pickup up stray RF energy from the Bluetooth intercom.  It's not really static that some in our group experienced, but instead an electronic-sounding interference whine or RF interference noise.  Maybe, with the increased power output of the Sena 20S for increased range, the RF energy is being picked up by the earbud cable.    

    My personal setup isn't bad at all.  The only time I can hear any of the noise is when in Intercom; and then it's way down low in volume.  So low, that I can't hear it over riding noises with earbuds in my ears.  So I can't test this possible solution. 

    But here's a possible solution for the issue that others might try.  Try placing a ferrite RF choke on the earbud cable way up next to the plug that goes into the Sena.   If that doesn't work, try placing the RF choke where the cable branches to right and left earbuds.  One or the other location may just work.   

    You can get these clamp-on chokes on the Internet or from Radio Shack (so long as they're still in business).

    I'd like to know if it helps.

    Weird thing, I put my phone right next to the 20s, and the static goes away. Then stays away until I initiated another intercom connection. Happens with NFC off or on. (At home, not in bike)

    Is it possible that the 'static' (I feel it sounds more like the channel being switched back and forth on the 20S) is due to having HD voice enabled, there-by using more channels and generating lower RF output vs. just using the 'normal voice' setting and having higher RF output?
