Ferrite Tuning R7- 4 "Slug" Most Williams Sound single channel Receivers are set at the factory to 72.9 MHz. The standard four-channel receivers (R7-4), channels 1-4, are usually set to frequencies 72.1, 72.5, 72.9, 75.7 MHz respectively. The Receiver must be tuned with a weak and somewhat noisy signal. If tuned too close to the transmitter, with a strong signal, the most accurate tuning of the receiver is not possible.
