portable VHF receiver problem
I'm in the UK and have a Shure EC11 bodypack transmitter with lavalier mike
on 174.8MHz. (I've also got an ECI transmitter on 173.8) I want to use this pack with a camcorder so I need a portable receiver for the camera end. Shure used to do a VP3 portable receiver for just this purpose but the VP3 has been discontinued in the UK. The chances of my finding a second hand VP3 on 173.8MHz or 174.9MHz is about nil. I see VP3's still sell in the US but not on this frequency, and VP3's rarely seen on ebay use frequencies that are illegal in the UK. Could I make a decent VHF receiver from a kit? Would a radio scanner do the job? Is there any other solution to this problem? I can't afford a new wirless mike system. Thanks for any help. |

Generally so, yes: as long as there are not any other offending signals on
the same band that may be of higher strength than what your system is supplying. Too bad you just can't find a decent small modulator that can be directly connected to the audio output of your cam-corder and transmits on the required frequencies?? "tg" wrote in message ...
