Location
For best operation the receiver should be at least 3' (1 m)
above the ground and at least 3' (1 m) away from a wall or
metal surface to minimize reflections. Keep the receiver
antennas away from noise sources such as digital equipment,
motors, automobiles and neon lights, as well as away from
large metal objects. In multi-channel systems, position
receivers at least 3' (1 m) apart and keep operating transmit-
ters at least 6' (2 m) from the receivers to help assure
maximum RF performance.
Output Connection
The receiver provides unbalanced, aux-level output from a
TS ("mono") phone jack; an output cable is not included. Use
a shielded audio cable with
receiver's AF Out jack to the mixer/amplifier's aux-level input.
Power Connection
Turn the receiver's volume control all the way down. If not
already connected, plug the small DC output cord from the AC
power adapter to the DC power input jack on the back of
receiver. Plug the power cordset into the power adapter, and
then connect the cordset to an AC source.
(Note that the receiver has no power Off/On switch. The
receiver will be energized whenever the power adapter is
connected and plugged into the AC outlet. Unplug the cordset
from the AC outlet whenever the system is not in use – both
for safety, and to conserve energy.)
If desired, the power adapter may be removed from the receiv-
er housing and used as an in-line supply. To remove the
adapter, gently pull the release tab slightly away from the
housing; then pull the power supply straight back out of the
receiver (Fig. A). Extend the 12V DC cord and/or the AC cord-
set as desired.
Front Panel Controls and Functions (Fig. C)
1. ANTENNAS: Position the "signal" antenna (1a) and
"ground" antenna (1b) as shown in Figure B.
2. POWER INDICATOR: Lights when power is supplied to
the receiver.
3. RF INDICATOR: Lights to show presence of transmitter
signal.
4. AF PEAK INDICATOR: Only lights when audio distortion
is present at maximum modulation. Not affected by
position of Volume control.
5. VOLUME CONTROL: Adjusts the audio level at the
output jack. Does not affect AF Peak indicator.

Antennas
A novel "dipole" antenna system on the receiver improves
operation by providing a "ground" element in addition to the
usual "signal" element. Position the two antennas at 90° in
the form of a "V," or position the left ("signal") antenna
vertically and the right ("ground") antenna horizontally, in the
shape of an "L" (Fig. B). Use the position that performs
better in your operating environment. Be certain to extend
both antennas to their full 15" (38 cm) length by holding
them at their bases and pulling out on their caps. Both antenna
elements may be swiveled to the left and right, but do not
attempt to rotate them in a screwing/unscrewing motion. To do
so may damage the antenna and/or receiver. For best

performance, locate the receiver so its antennas are in direct
line-of-sight to the transmitter's likely operating position.

6. AC POWER ADAPTER: Power supply "docks" inside
receiver housing, but can be removed to be used as an
in-line supply if desired.
7. RELEASE TAB: Pull down slightly to permit removal of
power adapter from receiver housing.
8. AC INPUT: Connect the AC cordset here.
9. DC POWER CORD: Connects the power supply's 12-volt
DC output to the receiver's DC input jack.
10. DC POWER INPUT: Connect the provided docking

11. SQUELCH CONTROL: Adjusts level of noise-muting circuit
(preset at factory but can be adjusted as circumstances
warrant).
12. AUDIO OUTPUT JACK:
phone jack. Use a shielded cable to connect to an
unbalanced aux-level input of a mixer or amplifier.
