I'm sure many of you have been in the situation where you weren't consulted before a purchase, but asked for advice afterwards. See if you guys can see what's up here. Our athletic department purchased this UHF wireless system with the intention of using for mic-ing the referees at football games. https://gtdaudio.net/gtd-audio-2x800-channel-uhf-diversity-wireless-microphone-p10.html It's not a bad unit for the price. The bodypacks have a mute switch obviously, but the refs want something a little easier to mute/unmute when announcing penalties. This is where I was consulted. The GTD bodypacks use TA3 plugs, and for the life of me - I could not find an in-line mute switch that used the TA3 interface. (at least not one that wasn't exorbitantly priced) So, I decided just to find the mute switch I wanted and see if I could make it work with our bodypack and headset mic. I purchased the Shure WA360 which uses a TA4 interface. http://www.sweetwater.com/store/detail/WA360 I found the correct adapters to get this TA4 mute switch plugged into our TA3 equipment, and not surprisingly, it does not work. I suspect the problem is with pinout. I have discovered tonight through a little googling that pins 2 and 3 are reversed when going from TA3 to TA4. So - what do you guys think my next step should be here. I have choir classes to teach this week and broadcasts to produce, so I don't have a ton of time to devote to this - but I would like to try and get this working by the next home game on 9/17. Braintrust - what say you?
