DIVERSITY WIRELESS BY ANCHOR AUDIO

Anchor Audio UHF wireless is a 16 channel, diversity wireless system that receives signals with two independent antennae. With diversity wireless the receiver processes the stronger signal, effectively minimizing dropouts and interference from other transmitting sources. The antennae are mounted internally so there are no obstructions or risk of damage.

FEEDBACK

Feedback, a howling noise or shrill sound, is self-generated by the sound system. It’s caused by a microphone picking up the sound coming from the speaker and then re-amplifying it. Once a feedback loop starts it continues until the system is adjusted.

CHANNEL SELECTION - BUILT-IN RECEIVER

Select a channel, set the built-in receiver & microphone transmitter to that channel before useing your wireless system.

1.Choose any available wireless channel/frequency from 1 thru 16 (see page 7 for transmitter setup instructions)

2.Turn the Wireless Channel Selector Knob to the channel/frequency you choose in step 1

If you have two wireless receivers repeat above for the second receiver. Remember each receiver/transmitter pair must be set to different channels for proper operation.

NOTE: Ongoing wireless interference? The frequency you selected may be in use by other systems in the area! Change channels until you find a clear frequency!
