Keep in mind any sort of furni pads, carpets or blankets will get very heavy once wet. Astro turf (fake grass) can work. Similarly to hogs hair the grass blades soften the drops impact but the water can still run through so it doesn’t get waterlogged.

Looks like It’s an of the shelf connector, would take some digging to work out exactly what thought. A quick google of “pcb smd interconnector” I found this https://au.mouser.com/new/te-connectivity/te-connectivity-fine-pitch-btb-connectors/?_gl=1*j5y6tx*_ga*MTc5NTkzOTczNC4xNzM1OTg3MTk1*_ga_15W4STQT4T*MTczNTk4NzE5NC4xLjAuMTczNTk4NzIwOC40Ni4wLjA. Looks like it’s a BTB (board to board) connector. Good luck with your search!

Look like they call timecode sync audio clock sync in thier manual.

Sounds like you need to sync word clock not just TC. Wordclock is on its own connector, not sure if the Zoom has that?

Yes the switchcraft ones don’t have any strain relief, any tension on the cable is directly on the solder joints.

One of my Audioroot 98wh batteries has a dead cell already after only 37 cycles. Not covered by warranty unfortunately. Has anyone replaced cells or know if someone that does it? I remember it was possible to get np1s re-celled.

Do the caps screw into the shell thread? Wouldn’t the cable then get all twisted and possibly break at the solder connection? Or do you glue the caps on?

I had an AC tell us that they couldn’t be turned off, not sure if he didn’t want to or not that smart…. I ended up doing it myself. Pretty sure if they get too hot the fan would come on. They are ridiculously loud for an on camera TX

I have one and to be honest for in the bag using whips it doesn’t give me much over the rx naked. I’m used to changing settings in the rx directly so that’s pretty quick. DC out is handy and rf distribution built in is good for external antennas but kinda moot if your using whips.

I replaced the tip of my loon with a PSC tip. Not sure what model my loon is but is a medium size and it fit perfectly! The bit inside the pole is actually a bit longer so it’s a bit sturdier. https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/403968-REG/PSC_FBPTIP_FBP_TIP_3_8_16_replacement.html

Do you need wireless if they are just sat around a table? Mics on desktop stands not an option?

Does anyone know the part number for the faders on a standard cl-12? I seem to recall they were ALPs faders. Hoping to order a a replacement without having to open it up first..

I have a set of microsones that I haven’t used in the field but on testing 2 things I found that could be problematic- the delay Bluetooth introduces and I couldn’t get as much level out of them as on phonaks. Not sure how they would go in louder environments for this reason. As always you get what you pay for!

I had the same problem, sent it off to get repaired. I think it's the spring that pushes up the battery terminals inside the unit that needed replacing.

I've found you can just squeeze a MKH70 70 into a Rode blimp with a low profile xlr connector (cable techniques). I don't use the MKH70 much so didn't want to spend the $ on a rycote.

Good to know, I've been using an adaptor also

Absolutely, I've been using the txAdvance app which is excellent

Yep following rules 1-3 which is working pretty well, just trying to get that extra 5%! Good point about the potential broken SMA.

I'm thinking of adding some inline RF attenuators to my links/hops transmitters in my bag setup, to help my recievers out with spray etc. I'm using smqv and the min power output is 50mW, I think half that or even less would be enough from my bag to camera which is usually close. Has anyone one done be this? I recall a discussion somewhere but can't find it now. How much attenuation would I need? 5db, 10db? If anyone knows the formula that would be amazing!

I might have of missed it, but what happens when the battery in the earpiece needs replacing after several years? Do I send it back to manufacturer or will I just buy a replacement earpiece?

Hey Ed, I've been using one of these with no troubles https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/322165403845 I went with 15 volt so I can have both it and a smart battery plugged into my PSC triple play BDS. The BDS uses the source with highest voltage so if I lose AC power it switches to my battery.

Can you select and upload a folder though, like In your example the folder named 20Y11M20. Or if uploaded the folder AON-TEAM-A will the sub folders and files also upload?

Can you select entire folders to upload rather than individual files? In the demo video it doesn't seem to show this? I've tried using dropbox and google drive apps and directly connecting to an 833 and that was a major drawback for me, having to create the folders then adding files to them on the cloud.

Thanks for the replies, I think I'll just run seperate batteries for now.
