David Silberberg Posted August 28, 2015 Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 (edited) So regarding the RF problem actor: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N5pkmrzsPHs a tutorial showing how to make a dipole antenna for a transmitter, so you can get the antenna up on the person's shoulder while the body pack is down at the waist or ankle. requires the use of a transmitter with removable antenna, sma mount.

Richard Nault Posted August 28, 2015 Report Share Posted August 28, 2015 Try getting the tx antenna away from any skin. Use a straw or maybe a hush lav on the end of the antenna. You can also try putting the tx on the ankle (less mass to go through) +1. Sweaty skin next to antenna? R Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RPSharman Posted August 29, 2015 Report Share Posted August 29, 2015 I once went to wire this actress. She laughed and said, "You won't have much luck with that." We chatted a bit about her previous experiences on other shows, and the fact that mixers had trouble with reception of her mic. I took it with a grain of salt, assuming poor equipment or something. She was right, however. Very poor reception. Normal size body. No costume issue. Variable placement. Just voodoo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
