Miscellaneous Tips

The receiver antennas should be kept away from any metal surfaces whenever possible as they can reflect away or shield the incoming RF signal.

When inserting batteries, make sure they are inserted with the correct polarity.

Before operation, confirm that the receiver and associated transmitter are tuned to the same frequency/channel.

After making a receiver channel change, make sure that the corresponding change is also made on the matching transmitter.

Use only fresh alkaline or fully charged NiMH batteries. Do not use “general purpose” carbon batteries. When batteries are weak, replace all of them at the same time. Do not mix new and old batteries, or different types of batteries.

Position the receiver so it has the least possible obstructions between it and the transmitter. Line-of-sight is best.

During operation, the transmitter and receiver should be as close as possible to each other for optimal results.

Although placement of the receiver on the floor provides good performance in most applications, for best operation the receiver should be placed at least 3 feet (1 meter) above the ground and 3 feet

(1 meter) away from a wall or metal surfaces. The transmitter should also be at least 3 feet (1 meter) from the receiver.

Keep antennas away from noise sources such as motors, automobiles, neon light, signal processors, computers, and large metal objects.

A receiver cannot receive signals from two or more transmitters simultaneously.

Turn the transmitter off when it is not in use. For longest life, remove the batteries if the unit is not going to be used for a long period of time as the transmitters draw a tiny residual current even when off in order to maintain the programmed settings. Also, since batteries installed for a long time can sometimes corrode and/or leak, causing damage, it is generally recommended that batteries be removed whenever the transmitters are not being used.

When using the MT-16A/R with guitars and basses: Scratchy noises can sometime occur when electric guitars with dirty pots or connections are used with a wireless system. If you hear scratchy noises, we suggest these steps to eliminate them:

1)Make sure all guitar volume and tone pots are clean and all contacts are solid. This is very important.

2)Consider soldering a 47pF capacitor across the pot to ground terminal of the guitar’s volume and tone pots—this will provide extra filtering.
