You can see that soldering on the circuit board one needs to be very precise. This is a G3 I did a few years ago. -

What I think Glen was meaning to say is a dipole antennas made from 50 Ohm Coax cable. The Lectrosonics YouTube site has a DIY video on the subject.

Wilcox Sound will re-wire your Cos-11d for about $150 if you still think there is some life in it.

Setting Levels with Lavs>Mixer>Recorder?
mark kirchner replied to Judge Crater's topic in General Discussion
Judge, There is a lot of information on this site with regards to your question. Use Google like this> gain staging jwsound or g3 set-up jwsound The key is to not use the internal search tool from this site. Once you know the secret there is years of good reading and knowledge here. Good Luck -
https://www.lectrosonics.com/US/wireless-guide.html This Wireless Guide by Lectrosonics is a good starting point.

Jon, I had an internal boom cable that had a nasty kink in it. I coiled the section along a smaller diameter wooden dowel, then heated it with my hot air gun. It got pretty warm, then I plunged it into a bucket with water and Ice. The cable came back to the original form. I hope this helps. Mark

Roubi, I have made antennas from nitinol nickel-titanium wire, but decided to use small diameter multi-strand cable instead. I understand that you are making antennas for receivers, not transmitters at this point. When I made nickel-titanium antennas, I would file a series of small notches in the terminal end of the wire. The notches would be covered by the SMA pin after soldering, but would add a mechanical bound inside the soldered connection. The colored caps are sold at B&H in New York, made by Lectrosonics I think.

Roubi, Here are some of the antennas I make. One of the tests I do is to put the SMA connector into a vice and then I lock vice grip pliers on the antenna wire. I then try to rip the antenna wire out off the SMA. Lectrosonics antennas are super strong. I pulled a Remote Audio antenna wire out, but it was difficult. Mine are 3rd place so far. You might think it is crazy to put a $40.00 antenna in a vice and then try to destroy it, but I wanted to know. I also did not want "talent" pulling an antenna out.

Hi Martin, We will just have to see how this all plays out. Mark

I agree Constantin, time code is vital. The Zoom F1 reminded me of the unfolding saga of the Tascam DR-10C and the Lectrosonics PDR. My comment attempted (from memory) to quote LarryF when discussing the new PDR. Here is his quote, "A recorder with time code is a recorder with time code is a recorder with time code. With apologies to Gertrude Stein." For our members that are not following this story, my references might be too oblique, my apologies. This might be a clue why the Zoom F1 does not offer time code, but also their target market and price point are factors to. Mark

Zoom F1, a body pack recorder with both audio input and audio output. I wonder if this will help Lectrosonics?
