For better reception
The RF lamp remains on when reception is good. If the RF lamp is off,
check that there are no interfering objects between the wireless
microphones/transmitters and the antenna, and that they are within range
of reception.
• For details, see “Installation” on page 16.

Notes

• You can use a maximum of two wireless microphones or transmitters

with this tuner. When setting channels for such equipment, you must set
each piece of equipment to a different channel within the same group.
For example, in group 11, channels 68-05 and 68-14 can be selected but
channels 68-05 and 68-11 cannot. If only one of the two tuners is in use,
be sure to set them to different channels within the same group.

• Be sure to separate the transmitter and the reception antenna by more

than two meters (6 feet, 8 inches). If they are closer than two meters (6
feet, 8 inches), the tuner may operate erratically and generate noise.
