ARCHITECT’S SPEC
The wireless system shall operate in the UHF band between 524 MHz and 865 MHz, with the specific available frequency range being
dependent on the user’s locale. Effective range of the system, receiver to transmitter, shall be 100 meters (300 ft.), under optimal conditions. Each system shall allow selection of over 90 operating frequencies across 18 MHz of bandwidth in order to avoid RF interference.
Optimal frequencies shall be selected automatically, ensuring that individual systems run at their highest level of performance, and that
multiple systems in simultaneous use do not interfere with one another.
An infrared signal beamed from the receiver shall be used to synchronize the frequency between the transmitter and the receiver. The
process of synchronizing the system shall be simple and instantaneous.
Each transmitter shall be powered by two AA batteries. Transmitters shall have a power on–off/mute switch, as well as multi-function
LED indicator showing locked/unlocked status, mute status, and battery strength. Available transmitters shall include a bodypack for use
with guitars, basses, and other instruments, as well as lavalier, headset or instrument microphones, and a handheld transmitter for vocals.
The bodypack shall include a 3–position switch and the handheld transmitter shall include a 2–position switch to compensate for higheror lower-gain devices. Both transmitters shall feature an easily accessible infrared port for system synchronization.
The receiver shall have a channel display LED. The system shall use diversity technology to improve reception, minimize signal dropouts, and achieve the best possible signal-to-noise ratio. The receiver shall include an audio level meter and an infrared port for system
synchronization.
The system shall be the Shure PGX Wireless.
