    Intercom systems that are compatible with Telex

    Only another BTR-200 beltpack will replace another BTR-200 beltpack. And since it has been discontinued, you'll be hard priced to find one.

    Intercom systems that are compatible with Telex

    I guess I don't understand the question.Telex gear is compatible with Telex gear. Do you have an existing hardwired Telxe system, and a BTR-200, and are simply looking at replacing the BTR with another wireless option that is compatible with your existing hardwired telex system?

    Intercom systems that are compatible with Telex

    Look at the DX200 for your wireless option. And does your exisitng system run off of a Telex base station like the MS-2002 or PS-2001? If it does it is already ClearCom compatible(and therefore DX200 compatible). You simply need to run the system in Unbalanced mode, which is changed by the...

    Wireless Personal Monitor with Smartphone

    As brought up before, anything above 5-6mS is noticeable to a singer and even an experienced drummer.The real problem is that TCP/IP is that it's not real time, not even close. The sender sends a packet and then waits for the recipient to say "I've got packet 1 of 1000", before it sends the...

    Shure UHF4 Network setup

    I was under the impression that the antenna cascades are unfiltered for the UR4D+. The AXT400 has filtered cascade outputs.

    Microphones Digital versus analog wireless?

    They aren't a problem yet, but I've been been part of shows where we invited TVBD prototypes to the event and run some real world simulations during the rehearsals. The results were... interesting. And not it our favor.And every television market has two reserved channels for the sole use of...

    Microphones Digital versus analog wireless?

    This is no longer true. TVBDs are for sale and in use. They are nowhere near the numbers of devices in the 2.4GHz range, but they are out there and operating. For instance, in JLNorthGA's area there is the pioneer city for White Space data. See here...

    Wireless RF-COMM Sharing RF-MIC Antennae Distro?

    Only the receive side of the BTR. Each antenna can only go one way, either it is a receiver or a transmitter. Like Chris said, you can combine the BTR into your current distro but that means that the BTR packs will have to same coverage area as the wireless mics. If the mics go out in the...

    Keep it or sell it?

    Depending on what frequency band the wireless is in, I'd say keep it. There are more people who will buy used UHF-R gear than won't and those KSM9 capsules will sell well. Making a TRS to TA4F adaptor isn't too hard and it would allow you to buy one type of mic connector, but utilize both types...

    Sennheiser EW Comparison

    Slight dynamic range improvements, EQ range, battery life improvements, but honestly, it's very minimal between the models. But that does not mean unnoticeable. They all use the same compander with slightly different results.I'm not aware of a G2/G3 pin-out change from Sennheiser in the ew...

    Substitute for Clearcom

    If your actually in Orlando there are a few good option. LMG, PRG, and Professional Wireless will all have a wired com inventory to rent from. If the installed system is just XLR jacks throughout the building then you could get a Telex, RTS, Clearcom, Production Intercom system to work. Send me...

    Wireless Wireless RF Dropout

    What frequencies does your OFCOM license say are to be used?And what ranges are your SLX in? Different ranges have different output powers. H5, J3, L4 and P4 are all 30mW but the others are 10mW.

    Wireless Telex for High School

    The easiest way is to get an interface box and connect it to the loop thru on the BTR-300. I believe ClearCom's product number is TW-47. In addition to easily doing the pin conversion is has independent volume controls.

    Hellermann Sleeve Size?

    For everyone uninitiated with the Hellerman tool, we had a great thread about mic rigging a while ago here on CB. Here it is. It's a very specialized tool for adding 1" elastic tubing to lavalier rigs for theatrical purposes.H16 is my go to size, and for connectors and such H20 is fine. They...

    800 freq

    The local police will likely not know their frequency licensing and usage to the extent that it will help you. Plus you may make someone more nervous than necessary that may lead to some problems. Give Jon Sweeny a call or email. He is the SBE coordinator for the entire state of Rhode Island and...
