Ty Ford Posted November 7, 2013 Report Share Posted November 7, 2013 I'm looking for places to stress test some audio gear that runs up there. It has Frequency Diversity that sends uncompressed 24-bit, 48 kHz mono audio on two dynamically allocated frequencies, each of which change quickly and inaudibly because the transmitter and receiver are duplex and are constantly talking to each other. It has Time Diversity that sends the audio in multiple time slots. Sort of like the redundancy scheme offered by DAT machines, but in the air, not on tape. It has Space Diversity using two antennas on both the transmitter and receiver. Latency is about 3.8 mSec. So, where are the best 2.4 GHz Hell Holes? Maybe a Pandora? Starbucks? On the floor at NAB? Suggestions. Thanks, Ty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Blankenship Posted November 7, 2013 Report Share Posted November 7, 2013 Perhaps a mall. Even better, a Starbucks IN a mall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Blankenship Posted November 7, 2013 Report Share Posted November 7, 2013 Superbowl is typically pretty bad for wireless and WiFi. Absolutely. NFL games sprang to mind but the frequency coordinator would frown pretty heavily on someone testing some unauthorized devices. And, yes, they do often monitor for such issues.

pindrop Posted November 7, 2013 Report Share Posted November 7, 2013 Suggestion for you if you really want the worst hell hole would perhaps be running two of these devices in the same 2.4 GHz busy place? Hell for one and all.....? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glenn Posted November 7, 2013 Report Share Posted November 7, 2013 Use of any 2.4 gig wireless is strictly off limits at NFL events. Glenn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brian albritton Posted November 7, 2013 Report Share Posted November 7, 2013 I saw almost 40 different WI-Fi networks at an apartment complex once - that's a lot of 2.4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It depends upon what one means by the term "always," but we're making the same point: The NFL pays close attention to what goes on in their stadiums frequency-wise.

GrahamTimmer Posted November 7, 2013 Report Share Posted November 7, 2013 Find yourself a smart home. You are lucky to get cellphone reception in them. Very congested with rf. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wandering Ear Posted November 8, 2013 Report Share Posted November 8, 2013 Go to a computer recycle shop, or thrift store, and buy a bunch of old wireless routers. Set each one to broadcast on a different channel. You'll fill up the 2.4ghz spectrum pretty quick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
