Lectrosonics Block 941 equipments transmission distance

[SkyXu]

Do block 941 compared to block a1 and b1 has a reduction in transmission distance? Or do they roughly stay the same?

Theoretically the shorter wavelengths should provide a little less range. That is more than offset by the fact that the RF background noise level at 941 frequencies is so much lower than the noise in the 470 to 600 MHz bands. So, in 99 cases out of 102, the range is better in the 941 band.

Right. Got it! Thank you!

A1>B1>941, my experience is 941 band is cleaner than others, but distance is shorter than others.

Does anyone have experience with the 941 band in Europe?

I don’t think you can use it in Europe. It’s a mobile phone network frequency range

I've found that this is a good site to see what frequency mobile phone networks are operating on in different countries.

Doesn't tell you what frequencies are legal to operate wireless mics on but you can work out what you definitely can't use.
