  1. Just trying to sort some of my systems out and I can't seem to find any markings for frequency range (830-865MHz / 606-638MHz) on the Receiver Antennas Any hints of what I might be missing from other Trantec users? Thanks James.
  2. Bit of a long shot but wondered if anyone had one of these available? James.
  3. Interesting thread - It reminds me I still have my old portable show relay system for village halls floating about . Modulator, DA, stacks of cabling and a number of 19" Flat screen TVs with analogue decoders. Probably need to get round to listing it if there is still a demand for this type of thing... Nowadays If I was to start from scratch I'd probably consider something NDI based (fairly low latency, reasonable quality and can be distributed using standard network infrastructure)
  4. Interesting, CQ-20 doesn't appear to be much more expensive than an XR-18, Does it have output delay?
  5. Another fan of the (passive) ZX1 here - have a number and have used them over subs for FOH (either SB121 or the ZX1-sub) and by themselves for speech only conference, foldback, front fills etc..
  6. Personally I'd look at the output of the scaler / converter on a scope/WFM to see if what you are outputting is P or PsF, or do you have a scaler that is taking 1080 and producing 2016 or similar or if the frame rate is 25P or 50P or something else. (I'd probably also check if the 25P produced by the other camera is actually 25p or 25PsF) What brand/model is the scaler / converter? James.
  7. I believe Danny (the chap you were talking about who built the impressive homebrew desk) is a Blue Room member (https://www.blue-room.org.uk/profile/14434-spectralight/) (and also https://www.blue-room.org.uk/profile/9729-electronicdan/) He did seem to confirm that they were able to remove the MMS bits from the venue in the previous MMS thread.
  8. Have been using an Allen & Heath GLD-80 for some years now and last make made the cardinal sin of recalling a new scene before saving the old. Spent a bit of time looking for the undo with no joy which got me thinking which of the current crop of small format digital desks currently support undo and which don't? (I had based my assumption on regularly still using a somewhat venerable 01v96 which does have a scene recall undo so had just assumed that all more contemporary ones would also!) James.
  9. Is this a permanent install or one that needs to be rigged/derigged on a weekly basis. What is the content - is this vocal only for readings/sermons or do you have a full on worship band? Have you considered a specialist consultant to advise on best system for space and your requirements?
  10. What idea of budget do you have for this project? Will the matches be daytime or evening? Do you have anywhere to mount the cameras? Do you have anyone responsible for managing the recordings? Do you want audio with the pictures? Do you have any idea how you might distribute the recordings to the players?
  11. Are you able to supply a still showing what you are getting from the existing camera to indicate how much keystoning you are looking for? James.
  12. As it happens I have attempted a repair with epoxy (and did use a Jubilee clip to add pressure) Will thoroughly inspect once the epoxy is dry. Would still feel slightly more comfortable if I could track down an original replacement part but suspect that is somewhat unlikely now. Thanks all James.
  13. I have a number of 100v line horns that tend to get used for things like school sports days etc, I don't do a lot and have picked up various items over the years from various locations. One of my 3 larger horns has recently been damaged and I'm trying to find out more about it to ideally look to repair it as it has been fairly useful. What's happened is the plastic thread between the Horn and Compression Driver has become cracked which means the driver is no longer securely attached. I could attempt to repair the thread with epoxy adhesive but am reluctant to trust a repair (particularly as this is all that supports the ~2Kg driver) so would rather track down a replacement component if possible. There are no markings on the horn but there is the following on the Driver: Thunder & Calm Suim Technology Corporation Compresion Driver NDU-50B 50 Watts 8 Ohm Made in Korea I don't know if the horn comes from the same source as the driver, I've tried various searches online but have struggled to track down a UK based dealer for "Suim Technology Corporation" It came to me as part of a bulk lot from a used dealer so that's probably a dead end - any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you James.
