The Tourguide 1039 system

The Tourguide 1039 system consists of the EK 1039 receiver and a suitable trans-
mitter of the evolution wireless G3 or 2000 series. 

The system offers optimum speech transmission for guided tours, small confer-
ences and interpretation applications with one or several speakers. 

The use of RF transmission allows freedom of movement for all members of the
group. Due to the possibility of combining the EK 1039 receiver with different
transmitters, the system can be optimally adapted to your individual needs. 

Frequency ranges

The EK 1039 receiver is available in the frequency ranges Bw, Cw and Dw. The fol-
lowing diagram shows an overview of compatible frequency ranges. For setting up
a transmission link, the evolution wireless G3 or 2000 (including IEM) series trans-
mitter used must operate in a matching frequency range and must be set to the
same frequency as the receiver. 

32 factory-preset frequencies that are intermodulation-free allow you to operate
up to 32 transmission links simultaneously. 

You can change the factory-preset frequencies to suit your needs. In this case, how-
ever, it might be that the frequencies are not intermodulation-free.

Features of the EK 1039 receiver

The EK 1039 is a small, rugged bodypack receiver that can easily be attached to
clothing by means of a belt clip. The receiver allows you to connect any headphones
(min. 8

Ω

) and to individually adjust the volume. 32 UHF receiving frequencies

(preset but changeable) offer high flexibility and adaptability. 

Features of the receiver:

Easy and comfortable use

Channel indication with individual channel name via display 

Channel adjustment via rocker button

Operation and reception indication via LED 

LowBattery

” indication via LED and display
