CHANNEL SELECTOR SWITCH
1) Switch the Frequency Selector Switch to the desired channel (A or B).
2) Belt clip on the back of the unit clips the transmitter onto a belt or the
transmitter simply can be put into a pocket.
3) Plug the microphone into the Mic Input Jack.
4) The microphone can be clipped to a necktie or other clothing, using
the supplied clip. The lapel mic should be placed under the chin, as
close to the center of the body as possible
5) Slide the power ON/OFF switch to the ON position (the LED indicator
light will illuminate).
HELPFUL HINTS
A) If the selected channel is noisy, switch both the transmitter and
receiver to the other channel.
B) Low ceiling fluorescent lighting, overhead telephone lines, or close
proximity to metal fences can all cause static. If this occurs, try a
slight change of position and/or try changing frequencies.
WIRELESS MIC SET UP
The VHF wireless microphone system is compact, lightweight and
compatible with all AmpliVox VHF wireless systems. The wireless mic
operates in an authorized VHF band and has a useful range of up to 300-
ft. Each system operates on two crystal-controlled, switch selectable
frequencies for clear clean transmission.
“A” Channel
“B” Channel
T6: 171.105
MHz T7: 171.845 MHz
The frequency appears on the back of each unit. Both transmitter and
receiver must have the same, and both units must be set to either “A” or
“B.” Note that two transmitters on the same frequency will not work with
one receiver. However two or more receivers will work with the same
transmitter. Before use, make certain you understand the function and
operation of the system.
RF INTERFERENCE
Please note that wireless frequencies are shared with other radio
services. According to the Federal Communications Commission
regulations, “Wireless microphone operations are unprotected
from interference from other licensed operations in the band. If any
interference is received by any Government or non-Government
operation, the wireless microphone must cease operation…” If you need
assistance with operation of frequency selection, please contact your
dealer or AmpliVox. Additionally There are models available for use in
Canada.
POWER SOURCE
The transmitter and receiver are each operated by a 9V alkaline battery.
Before use, install a battery as shown. Make certain the battery is fully
seated in its compartment so the cover slides in place easily. Battery life
with alkaline batteries is approximately 8 hours of operating time. The
receiver also features an external jack for connecting a 9V DC power
supply (not included).
TRANSMITTER OPERATION
If there is a “dead spot” in a room, try a slight change of position or try
changing frequencies. Each unit provides two selectable transmitting
frequencies.

C) When the battery voltage drops below 6V, the LED indicator will
go out. This means you need a new battery.
D) Be sure to turn off the power whenever the units are not in use,
and remove the batteries if the units will be out of service for a
long time. NOTE: There are no user-adjustable parts inside the
transmitter or receiver Do not attempt to open or make any adjustments
E) Cellular telephones cause interference. Ask your audience to turn off
their cell phones.
BELT CLIP
A detachable belt clip is included for convenience. Slide the tapered
end of the belt clip into the grooved area located on the back of the unit
until it clicks into place.
PROBLEM SOLVING
FEEDBACK
Feedback is the howl or screech often heard in sound reinforcement
systems. It is caused by sound from the loudspeaker returning to the
microphone. AmpliVox systems utilize proven acoustical principles
to minimize this; however, there is no way to completely eliminate
feedback under conditions of high amplification. If feedback occurs
check the following:
1. User’s hand covering the head of the microphone. (Hold microphone
under head slots.)
2. Sound can easily re-enter microphone. Keep loudspeaker turned
toward audience. Note: sound can be reflected from a hard surface
back through the microphone. (Turn speaker.)
3. User holding microphone in a reflecting position. (Turn microphone.)
4. Volume setting too high. (Reduce microphone channel volume;
compensate by speaking louder or closer to the microphone.)
NO SOUND
Make sure amplifier POWER switch is turned on and red LED is lit. If
switch is on and LED is not lit, check to see that batteries are properly
connected and at full charge. If using optional power adapter, check to
see that front panel connector is properly seated, and verify that power
source is live.
