[QUOTE="Alan Haworth, post: 213428, member: 13820"] I talked with EV prior to posting this thread. After talking with EV, they sent me two replacement units. The same issue appears on all of the units. The country club previously had RE2 units with the same antenna system and the performance was satisfactory. If the RE3s were installed in theater stage setting, I would never have noticed the problems. I am using the mics outdoors on a country club patio. The mics have excellent range, I can get 250 feet away from the receiver, when the antenna is connected to the "A" antenna input port. Inside a theater or meeting room, it is unlikely that I would be that far away. However walking over to the area were the other antenna is located, the receiver never switches to the "B" antenna port. There should be marked increase in signal from the "B" antenna port causing the receiver to switch antenna ports. I would like someone using RE3s to share their experience with the performance of the diversity system. If someone can explain how the RE3 determines the best antenna to use that would be helpful. It apparently is not just on RF signal strength. I have RF signal generators and tested the sensitivity of the receiver on each antenna port ( no difference) but I can not get the diversity to function. [/QUOTE]
