And I'm back with more wireless ALS issues (unrelated to my previous inquest about the Nursery thing).
About a year ago we put in a new system at a church and it included a Listen Technologies ALS system. Now in the past we've used Listen systems with great success and for about 11 months this was no exception - in fact the church ordered more receivers due to the system's popularity and their very large elderly crowd. Everything came in crystal clear - no buzzes, no fuzziness, nothing.
Then about a month ago another nearby church installed a new ALS system on the same frequency and these congregation members began picking up the signal from that church. No problem, we'll just change the frequency. Well when we went to do that all of the channels were now noisy, including the one that it had been on. There was a lot of noise and interference on all channels. Nothing we did could fix it. Even with just the test tone on and the transmitter unplugged from the rest of the system there was noise.
Here's where it gets weird though....
At the same time we installed a brand new sound system at a church 2 miles away and while the ALS there (the same Listen system) was fine when we set it up we soon received a call that it was doing the same thing.
It would seem that MAYBE there is some sort of something broadcasting on that frequency in the area causing all this? It's bizarre though that both systems worked fine from the start and then failed.
Anyone ever expierence anything like this before?
