They're still legal down here and I'm sick of walking too far away from my amp (oops) or stepping on leads ($$$) | ||

THIS one is actually deceiving the buyer, claiming it is FCC compliant. And THIS one doesn't tell the buyer the frequency, but researching the model number shows it to be illegal. I don't understand why they don't offer international shipping, but would rather deceive the US buyers. So, would one of my US OFC friends please make an offer of $50 for the first one, and advise them that; 'as of June 12, 2010 any wireless microphone equipment that uses frequencies between 698 MHz and 806 MHz is prohibited in the United States." Get the unit delivered to your CONUS address, re-send it to me and I'll fix you up through PainPal. Obviously, I'll cover all PainPal costs and any out-of-pocket expenses. There are enough of you old timers still here that should know me well enough to trust me. Geez, if Cliff trusts me I MUST be OK... | ||

So, disregard the previous post re: bidding on my behalf. I could still be interested in taking any of your now illegal wireless systems off your hands as A) I may not win the above auction and B) I know a few musicians here that may be interested in going wireless. | ||

Joined: January 2006 Posts: 5881 Location: Colorado Rocky Mountains | Just finished a two-weekend gig using a Line6 G50 that transmits in the 2.4 GHZ range. Excellent unit, no issues whatsoever, no interference with other transmitters even though there could have been as the venue was in the middle of the Denver Performing Arts Complex where twere likely dozens in use at any time, inlcuding a second house system on me. Don't know if there are any available on the resale market yet. | ||
