  1. you can also type in the numbers directly using the number keys
  2. There are tweaks planned. Howy is just finishing up some cool new stuff first.
  3. The 411 has a much better front end filter than the SR series receivers. With that your hop is so close in frequency to the receiver you are most likely overloading the front end of the SR. As a general rule of thumb is always want at least 1 block separation between in-bag transmitters and in-bag receivers.
  4. The RX200 can only receive signal from 1 transmitter - the QRX200 can receive signal from 2 transmitters. The qrx235 has a tc input. You would connect the tc out of your SD and I put it into the 235 - you just need an adaptor cable.
  5. The qrx200 or qrx235 will both output 2 line level analog (or AES digital signals) into any mixer. The purpose of the IFB (regardless if it comes from the 235, ifb200 or camera link) gives you the ability to remote control the transmitters - including changing the input gain, changing the frequency frequency, and starting and stoping the internal recorder. The IFB will also send time code to the transmitters so that the audio files are synced.
  6. You can use a QRX235 with IFB. That will give you a 2 channel receiver with transmitter control in the bag - the down side is the 235 in block specific so you loose the the benefit of wide band. The other option is to add a camera link transmitter or a ifb200. That gives you a seperate zaxnet transmitter to control the wireless plus you have the ability to feed erx receivers (producer monitoring and scratch track with tc to a camera) and you add a back up two channels recorder with tc to the bag. If you go with the camera link you add a 2 channel uhf transmitter to feed cameras (if you need to add this in the future).
  7. I have a custom made steel cage in the back of my Honda Pilot.
  8. That blue box looks like a Zaxcom RX200. Zaxcom RX200
  9. I use both Lectro and Zaxcom in my bag and I generally keep both my SMQV and my TRXLA set to 50mW - which is plenty of power for most situations. And I find that the range I get with my lectrosonics and zax are always very comparable. Given that I generally grab the zax first these days mainly just for the ability to remotely control the gain.

  11. I haven't personally seen the clip but it was described to me that the transmitter slips into it. And the same clip can be reversed so that you can have antenna up or antenna down.
  12. Latency is going to vary depending on the modulation used.
  13. Just make sure that you buy genuine fuji batteries from a reputable source because counterfeit batteries exist. Those batteries will not deliver full run time - with those batteries you may only get 2 or 3 hours. As well as wisy and the SSM
  14. Just a word of caution. The NP50 is a very common battery and can be purchased from may source including brick and mortar camera and electronic stores and assorted online sources. Being a common battery makes the np50 a prime target for counterfeit and off brand batteries. Those batteries won't deliver the best runtime performance - so be careful where you source your batteries from. It's always best to purchase them from a reputable source, your friendly audio dealer should be able to assist. Please don't go for the cheep knockoffs because you do get what you pay for.
  15. The 300 series is a single receiver and isn't the recommended receiver for most of us. Zaxcom recommends staying with the 200 series receivers for most film and TV mixers.
  16. I use zaxcom ERX's and love the work flow. The great thing about the ERX is it can be also be used to send a scratch track and the same receiver can be used for audio monitoring. Plus the transmitter has a two channel timecoded recorder - which makes a great backup recorder in your bag.
  17. I've been using Pelican cases for years and have had no issues. But when I was looking for a smaller rolling case I looked at pelican, storm, and hrpc. The hrpc was physically lighter and has a much better collapsible handle. The hrpc was aluminum vs plastic - the storm and pelican had to much flex. The hrpc also has a much better lock and release system on the handle. I've had the hrpc for about 3 years now and it has flown in the vicinity of 200,000 miles as checked baggage and hasn't let me down as of yet.
  18. I like the HPRC cases. Life time warranty. I had a latch break and they sent me 4 new latches. http://www.hprc.it
  19. Nice set up - you just need to get a pair of right angle SMA antennas
