HELP SECTION
RF Interference
If you encounter receiving interference (from other than an operating TV station), often it can be
eliminated by adjusting the receiver’s squelch control, as described in this manual.
Please note that wireless frequencies are shared with other audio services. According to Federal
Communications Commission regulations, “Wireless microphone operations are unprotected from
interference from other licensed operations within 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 or frequency selection, please contact Carvin’s service
department.
