Intro & Overview The 1000 series of Radio Mic equipment was introduced to bridge the gap between the, then standard, simple fixed-channel operation and the agile (switchable) ‘top of the range’ hardware that was best suited to the experienced professional user. Some simplification eg presetting the squelch threshold, was introduced to reduce costs and make operation easier for the less experienced user.
