Lectrosonics CR175 Operating Instructions And Troubleshooting Manual Download Page 3

Compact Receiver 

INTRODUCTION 

Thank you for selecting the Lectrosonics Professional Series wireless microphone 
system.  This system represents well over 10 years of manufacturing experience in 
wireless microphones, and almost 70 years of design experience. 

The CR175 receiver design is the result of surveying the needs of professional video 
producers, ENG cameramen and many others in the broadcast and pro video 
industry.  Hundreds of conversations with dealers and end-users developed the final 
parameters for the design. 

The CR175 receiver is a fixed frequency design that eliminates the need to “tune” or 
adjust the receiver every time it is used.  This is the preferred design for a number of 
reasons, among them simplicity of operation, no adjustments in “high pressure” 
situations, and interference rejection by design rather than by trying to “tune” it out. 

The CR175 miniature receiver was designed by professionals for outstanding 
performance and flexibility, while preserving ease of operation. It is compatible with 
all Lectrosonics VHF narrow-band transmitters.  The CR175 receiver represents one 
of the best values in wireless receivers, regardless of price.
