  1. Nothing like a good RF discussion to get Larry to dust off the keyboard. Thank you kind sir for your expertise and knowledge.
  2. Hey Cleve. Since you know this gentleman, request a version that has the connectors at the large end. That's how all of us use it. Just a thought. Please and thank you
  3. Question for those that know more about this than I do - Could you put a connector at the larger end of the Antenna? Looks like the trace runs from one end to the other. Scrape away the Epoxy (or whatever it is) and solder to the other end?
  4. Sorry Mike, after I read my post I should've been more descriptive. If you are shipping a pelican case full of lithium camera batteries, FedEx and UPS want you to do it via ground. Discussion about this at Super Bowl amongst the equipment guys at NFL, VER, etc. It may not have been implemented yet.
  5. FedEx and UPS are not allowing shipping of lithium batteries overnight. i.e. in an airplane. You have to ground ship them. Pretty soon we will all be going back to nickel metal hydride batteries
  6. I am old school and not a fan of wireless anything unless I have to. I use the Denecke time code boxes. A SB4 is on my list and it will soon replace my older Denecke boxes.
  7. A reboot of the separate mixer, recorder. I.e. a new cameo mixer, and deva update or nomad recorder. I'm not a fan of the control surface. Used to be... I would have the deva on the cart, and if I had to do a bag shot, I would unplug the deva from the cameo, and Away I go. The deva 24 looks massive and too "computery" for me. My 2 cents.
  8. I use a plate I got from the camera brothers. I think it's called a "Preston Plate". The side plate that mounts over the XLR is much nicer IMO. Picture below.
  9. To a Google search for creating a USB install drive. The short description is, you download the iOS you want, copy it to a USB drive. You can then boot from the USB drive and do a clean install on any mac computer, or any Drive Works great.
  10. OWC has great documentation on how to do upgrades. Use Carbon Copy Cloner to copy your existing drive to the SSD before you tear into it, unless you want to clean install and start from scratch.
  11. Ditto. The Zax is the closest to a wire. 742 eats batteries tho...
  12. Ritter did 3 of my NP-1's and they work great. Same (Samsung?) cells as original IDX. Will do it again and again...
  13. I mainly use it to "generate" TOD TC to jam into the GR. Will the Ambient do that?
  14. Denecke's Facebook page confirms that the timecode toolbox app is not iOS 10 compatible. Are there any substitutions for this wonderful little app?
  15. I am not able to get time code toolbox to work with IOS 10. Anyone else? Update – the Google machine told me that it is not compatible. Denecke's Facebook page gives a little more detail. Any alternatives?
  16. On more than one occasion the diva hasn't rolled due to the mixing panel remote roll switch not firing it. Going to the boom ops TRX and grabbing the card has saved me more than once.
  17. Hey Charlie. Any thoughts on doing a 1/8 inch mini plug instead of a lemo? Even make it an in and out like on the slates ...
  18. Lemo, damn. Love a 1/8" in/out.
  19. This is awesome. Thanks. How hard would it be to have an option to put the timecode on the Left/Rght channel of the MP3?
  20. You don't leave the business, it leaves you...
  21. I built this up thanks to Sam's guidance. Plugged it into my BDS box that has a USB port for charging the phone, and it worked great.
  22. Maybe version two of the ERX should have push and hold buttons for controls, eliminating all practical knobs and switches.
  23. Good to know. Thanks. On the "batteries" do you have to make series connections between the 3, or just drop in 1 active and 2 dummies?
