[QUOTE="Jeff Babcock, post: 213246, member: 46"] Hi Julienne, To add to Rob's comments: - Where are you located? You are likely experiencing interference from a UHF digital TV station broadcast or something else nearby that is putting out a competing signal. If you are experiencing a full dropout, it could be that you have the PILOT tone enabled, which is muting the device when interference is detected to avoid unwanted noises. This is visible on the receiver display. Here's an example of TV stations around Los Angeles to demonstrate what is going on in the TV spectrum (generated from TVFool). In that case you can see there are 28 UHF TV broadcasts, which will be of varying strengths by how close you physically are to the broadcast tower(s). If you are in a dense urban area, there will certainly be a lot of competition for a free frequency. [ATTACH type="full" alt="Capture.JPG"]209034[/ATTACH] In the Sennheiser G2's, you need to do the following (do this each time you are at a new location) Turn off the mic. On the receiver, select the SCAN menu option. Select START and then press SET. This will scan through the frequency spectrum looking for available channels. After the scan is completed, the number of free channels is displayed. Pressing the SET button again will store the scan result and lock out all channels that have interference detected. Now pick a channel and then sync the mic to this new channel. This will hopefully resolve your issues. Cheers [/QUOTE]
