Since the early 60’s, the lavalier microphone has been used to capture audio. Its concept allowed the audio engineer to get the cleanest voice recording by getting the mic closer to the source.

Chinhda has completed work on his double arm antenna boom design and both the single arm and double arm designs are now available. Both designs mount to a standard 5/8-inch stud as on a Matthews or Century stand. And, of course, they can mount to the telescoping mast Chinhda has available for his carts or on to any 5/8-inch post. Both designs have a 52-inch spread when fully opened and both fold to pass through doors, etc. The double arm design has a parallelogram construction that maintains antenna orientation even as it is folded. It's a little heavier (4 pounds rather than 2.4 pounds) and is suitable for larger antenna applications using helicals like the Sennhei…

For those who may be in need, Zaxcom just released their own battery system for the TRX 992. The Zaxcom ZPX battery ($80) will last anywhere from 7-9 hours (personally field tested). You will need a new charger ($40, single battery only) as well, being the VPX chargers are not compilable. If you didn't know, the Black&Decker VPX battery was discontinued and is getting harder to find. So if you find you self in need for a better battery for your 992 we have them available.
