■ Notes on use
ATM73acW and ATM73acH wireless versions do not contain power module and includes
clothing clip and metal-frame pop filter only. 1.4 m cable terminated with locking 4-pin
connector. The connector is also compatible with Audio-Technica cW and cH type
body-pack transmitters.
For maximum stability and minimum visibility, the headband should be worn around the
back of the head, with each cushioned support pad resting on the temple in front of the ear.
The cable should remain clipped to the headband, with some slack at the boom connection.
The headset is designed so the microphone descends from the left support pad.
Avoid leaving the microphone in the open sun or in areas where temperatures exceed 43°C
for extended periods. Extremely high humidity should also be avoided.
