LarryF Posted September 26, 2012 Report Share Posted September 26, 2012 Stupid question. It's the same design as a SRa? Hi Vasileios, It's actually a good question. Same basic design but with a 6 layer board rather than a 4 layer, reduced RF and IF gain in multiple areas, independently adjustable first oscillators, many cut and try changes to the ground and power planes, better shielded first IF filters, and earth from a two century old grave site from somewhere near Santa Fe.

beretta Posted September 27, 2012 Report Share Posted September 27, 2012 Larry, When I send it in for an upgrade can I change the block as well? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raycom Ltd UK Posted September 27, 2012 Report Share Posted September 27, 2012 Hi, for all UK users, Raycom will be ready to do the SRA>SRB upgrades just as soon as the now boards start shipping, the upgrades will be on a first come first served basis as with the original BL606 mods. Get in touch to book yours in! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LarryF Posted September 27, 2012 Report Share Posted September 27, 2012 Larry, When I send it in for an upgrade can I change the block as well? +$100 for $350 total. Again a bargain, since normal block changes are $500. Best, Larry F Lectro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travis Breitenbach Posted September 27, 2012 Report Share Posted September 27, 2012 Hi Larry, I don't suppose I can request that my SRb upgrade be of a different block than my current SRa unit, can I? I no longer use my SRa because I've acquired quite a few 411a's in the same block. I had be thinking about selling it and buying another SRa in a different block to use as a secondary hops Rx. If the board could simple be replaced in the block I prefer it would save me a lot of trouble. Best, Travis Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnpaul215 Posted October 1, 2012 Report Share Posted October 1, 2012 I read somewhere that the SRb will feed (more) cameras 2 channels of audio through the bottom connections, is that accurate? I also saw some sites saying the same "NOTE: Not all cameras have two audio channels enabled in the slot." warning, so..... ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnpaul215 Posted October 1, 2012 Report Share Posted October 1, 2012 I do understand that, but I read somewhere that the SRb got around that and expanded the number of cameras that would take 2 channels of audio from the UNI adapter. I always understood that the limitation was the cameras, and not the SR (maybe that's wrong). I know Sony's slot is intended for Sony wireless, but the UNI is used for more cameras. The Lectrosonics site doesn't acknowledge the SRb yet, and it looks like some inconsistent info is posted by unofficial sources (some are dealers).

AudioSheik Posted October 1, 2012 Author Report Share Posted October 1, 2012 Just an update: New boards for SRa upgrade to SRb will become available mid-November or early December. This is a LOOSE eta from Lectrosonics. If you'd like to go through us (Gotham Sound) for an upgrade please contact us and let up know the block and serial number of your receiver. Once the board for your block becomes available we will contact you to send it in. Hope this helps! Sincerely, Christina Z. Wittich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boomboom Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 So to sum it up, I'll be able to upgrade my SRa by mid november since the boards are gonna be released at that time ? We're not talking mid-october then, right ? Maybe soon but any idea of the upcoming SRb MSRP ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
studiomprd Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 " We're not talking mid-october then, right ? " it does not seem so... but maybe you could <cap>, and try begging, and maybe even crying... as has been pretty clearly announced, Lectro will provide you an RMA when they are ready and able to do your upgrade(s). " SRb MSRP ? " that has been announced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

studiomprd Posted October 8, 2012 Report Share Posted October 8, 2012 " as you don't seem to remember the numbers, just the announcement... " actually, that is correct... I do remember the new price is increased by the amount that will be charged for the upgrade.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
