Scouse Dave Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 Hi Gang We have never had any problems with our sennheiser wireless units before, but last night we were receiving faint music from somewhere. No music sources were being fed to the desk at the time. We were using one of the four unlicenced frequencies... The op changed the frequency and the music went away. Where could this be coming from? - what else broadcasts in that part of the spectrum? Thanks Dave M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J Pearce Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 Anyone else in the vicinity with a radio mic or radio in ear monitor on that frequency. That includes most budget radio mics and anyone too stingy to buy a license for the other frequencies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that it isn't beyond the realms of possibility but I really don't think it's that likely... Dave M. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J Pearce Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 How many people use wireless hifi/computer speakers? Kids walkie talkies? Wireless mic on a kareoke set? I have found examples of all of those running on the unlicensed radio mic frequencies. Or an engineer testing his gear at home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 The JFMG leflet which came with my mic warns about interference from hearing aids and cordless headsets in the licence free frequencies. It suggests use of the sahred an co-ordinated frequencies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djw1981 Posted October 24, 2005 Share Posted October 24, 2005 Or any technician at home with an IEM for recording sound to a MinDV camcorder...or one using two old base stations to send hi-fi audio upstairs etc..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
