Turned everything off but receivers.....I’ve done some testing and some RF is introduced when I plug in HDSDI monitor. But that’s not the whole story I suspect......

Sounds like my day ... pretty much same probs as you....

20 and 26 ...

Yep swapped to venue and all was good. Its the intermittent nature that makes it difficult...I could send back to lectro and I’m sure the units would behave. live used same setup on a few days since and all totally fine. Quite frustrating and not having faith in your kit can be a bit unsettling.

Hi audio brains trust. ive had a intermittent problem with my SRBs This has happened 3 times now. Last week I was on a TVC with two talent and a boom on wireless. Sending a mono guide to camera with a LMA . CLIENT and agency on comtek pr216 . Used the Freq finder app to coordinate and ran a scan on RF EXPLORER The day was going fine ,talent about 30 feet from me....Had been recording for several hours no problem,then started getting dropouts Did a scan on SRBs and they have broadband interference like the front end is being overloaded. Did a scan on RfExplorer. Looks clean. I got my bigger rig out (664 and venue field ,same blocks same freq setup and zero problems. Later when I scanned SRBS again all totally fine and I’ve worked a few jobs since with SRB ,NO problems. This has happened 3 times....usually in the heat of the battle. The last time ...I tried to turn the bag TX off and the 633 off and rescanned re powered and the hash was still there..,on two different blocks 26 /20 I was thinking maybe 5G testing ? As they are rolling that out at the moment.but the RF explorer showed clean spectrum..... I am stumped! Ant The previous time it happened,I was on a travel show and had talent on a zip line doing a PTC. SMQV at 250 mw...I was getting about 200m clean audio line of sight,then all of a sudden dropouts at 10 feet and hash all over the scan Nothing changed in my setup.....

From someone who has been doing location sound for 30 years and Audio post for nearly as long. You would be surprised at how much EQ and compression etc we sometimes use to get the scene to flow I really don’t think these days the gear really makes much difference.Its all excellent.,but the room ,the costume the lav placement the individuals voice,the helicopter ,the dog the plane and the chainsaw do. Having a recorder mixer wireless rig that weighs next to nothing is very exciting for my worn out back and knees tho my 2 cents

I sometimes send the director their own feed (usually because the agency are 300ft away and my bst75 is at the end of its range),but often the agency creative director willl be sharing that feed so sometimes its a no win situation. I think the false take idea is a very good workaround solution for production paranoia. The workflow most of the time on the jobs I do, is the director wants the live take plus instant replay,which dictates feeding the transmitter from either the Qtake system at the video village or from the audio output on one of the monitors.

I hadnt thought of that....good work around

Very appreciative of this. I have asked on many occasions and had given up on it ever arriving. It would be great to have a shortcut to turn it off/on as sometimes the director may want to hear a rehearsal.

I run mine off a Np1 with a 12 v homemade regulator...... 1 batt lasts a full day

I worked with one last week Didnt have the audio input extension ,but took TC without any futzing .... Has a built in crappy mic . Didnt hear anything back from post so I guess it all synced up fine. I didn’t hear the fan .

Real world I’ve done exactly this and get a solid 200-300 metres Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yes muteable aux in standby,I've also requested but nothing in the last 2 firmware upgrades..... I've built a little switch box with a flashing LED But the software version would be great Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

Is anyone using the unbalanced 3.5mm output to 2x TA5f and into lectro TX..... If so ,Does it work ok,interference wise Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

I work mainly in tv commercials and drama...... 90 percent of my jobs shoot on Alexa......Very rarely do we have any issues.There used to more Red shoots but , it's a rareity to see one these days. Mostly it's owner operator shoots...... Just my day to day experiance Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
