First day in the field with this guy - loving it so far.

Did the recording start before the transmitter locked time code?

Sign me up for one.

A few years ago a company here gave out leatherman with their logo on it. I still have it in my kit.

I still have mine!

It continuously mirrors in real time.

How long is your cable run - and what antennas are you using? For bag work where I am using dipoles and the cable length is fairly short I personally like something like an RG-174 (or something similar) and terminate on one side to a BNC and the other to an SMA. For longer runs you may want a beefier coax which would be hard to terminate to a SMA so in which case you would need to terminate to BNC and adapt it to SMA. As a general rule the shorter the cable run and the less adapters = less loss. Also make sure you use 50 ohm coax and connectors.

I get way more than 100 feet - where did you see that?

Nope any modulation will work.

You can use any antenna. How many receivers are you using - because nova already has a built in micplexer.

Oasis support is not currently in Nova - but it isnt that far away. The next major feature that will be added will be MP3 support. Then the oasis support should come not to long after that.

Pete What were your results?

I use the JB1 for all the reasons mention above. For me not having a display is a deal breaker.

Ambient would be able to check look at the unit and preform some service - if its anything major they would most likely send it to Zaxcom. The other thing is if it needs parts they may need to wait for them to arrive from Zaxcom.

Is your software updated? If not I would update it. Then I would reset the Maxx to factory default and rebuild the setting (not from the card). I would then put in a new record card - chances are that wouldn't really have too much of an effect - but you want to examine all options. If the above doesn't solve the problem - then you have a hardware issue and the unit will need to be sent to Zaxcom for service.
