[QUOTE="TJ Cornish, post: 68147, member: 162"] Re: Upgrading Wireless System, choices... Hi Marc - glad they're working out pretty well for the most part. A couple thoughts: With the V75 units, you should be running "RF2", which I believe is the default. In this mode your latency is 2.4ms, not the 4ms of RF1. Also, the RF2 channels have been reworked so that channels 1-5 (in Line6 numbering) should pretty much always be clear, ASSuming that the wifi in the location was setup correctly using only channels 1, 6, 11 (WiFi numbering). I've also noticed that battery life isn't amazing, but as the general rule for productions is to replace for every show, I haven't had too much trouble. That being said, 4 - 6 hours seems more realistic than 8. The battery meter on the device isn't very accurate until the mic has been on for a couple minutes - it is sensitive to "ghost voltage", and can overestimate the battery life a little. I don't remember all the details of the side by side mounting, but I agree with you - they're not likely to accidentally come apart once connected! I think I ended up using a screwdriver to pound on the actual dovetail piece so as to not have to hit the receivers. For RF dropouts - I think you'll benefit from Line6's remote paddles - especially when you chain 4 receivers together. I don't think they're super expensive, and should help a lot. [/QUOTE]
