How Many Mics does Channel 38 have?
The majority of our radio mic hire systems run on Channel 38. We recommend running a maximum of 12 – 16 radio mics on this band. If you’re running over 12, you may wish to consider using external antennas on the receivers and getting the receivers nice and close to the stage.
What radio mic frequencies can I use?
Additional frequencies outside of the TV bands also are available for wireless microphone use. Unlicensed wireless microphone use is permitted on the 902-928 MHz band, the 1920-1930 MHz, and on portions of the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz bands under specified power levels and rules for operation for each of those bands.
Is my wireless microphone legal?
Answer: The FCC allows wireless microphones to operate on both a licensed and unlicensed basis. Most wireless microphones use spectrum in the TV band. However, starting in 2017, the FCC has been limiting the amount of spectrum available to wireless microphone users.
Which is best UHF or VHF mics?
VHF usually has better sound quality than UHF, VHF microphones are easier to use outdoors, and VHF is more reliable in signal quality. VHF television transmitters can also be used for WiFi. VHF devices have the best coverage for outdoor devices, while UHF is useful for office or indoor locations.
How much is a channel 38 Licence?
UHF (Channel 38) £85.00 for one year and £155.00 for two years. If users decide to purchase this type of licence there is a discount for purchasing direct from our website: £75.00 for one year and £135.00 for two years.
How many wireless microphones can be used at once?
Using Wireless Microphones Simultaneously Technically, the limit is 32 (Americas) or 40 (International) microphones per system. That’s a lot of wireless mics! On a larger scale, you can also have multiple wireless systems running independently in different conference rooms.
Why are certain frequencies illegal?
It’s now illegal to operate wireless audio in the majority of the 600 MHz band. The sale of the 600 MHz frequency band further limits the available frequency channels wireless audio can use to transmit sound. Both the 700 MHz and 600 MHz are sought after because wireless can propagate through walls more efficiently.

Is UHF better than 2.4 GHz?
Technically, the UHF band has longer range and better propagation outdoors and through solid objects, but the difference is mostly negligible since both frequency bands are fairly power limited as dictated by the FCC. Channel Count: UHF band wireless mics are able to accommodate more wireless channels than 2.4 GHz.
Can a radio mic be retuned to channel 38?
Flexible Licence allows owner to use radio mic systems outside and in any location Radio mics that can tune to Channels 69 & 70 cannot be retuned to Channel 38.

An area of bandwidth between 606-614MHz ( known as Channel 38 ) was allocated in 2012 as the replacement for Channel 69.
Are there any radio mic frequencies below 863mhz?
Directly below 863MHz there is 4G mobile phone data transmission, there is no buffer so it is possible that some users may experience interference at the lower end of Channel 70 (around 863MHz). Not recommended for larger radio mic systems or for In-Ear-Monitoring (IEM) systems.
