Description
This headset microphone from QTX works with the Busker, Quest and PAL portable PA units. It comes with a VHF beltpack transmitter and runs on the 174.1MHz frequency, so you can use it as an alternative or a replacement for the microphone supplied with those systems. The headset design keeps your hands free, which suits presenting, teaching, fitness classes and busking where you need to move around.
The beltpack transmitter uses a pilot tone to cut down on interference, giving you a cleaner signal during your set or session. The microphone connects to the beltpack through a 3.5mm mono jack, and the transmitter takes two AA batteries, which are not included. Fitting it in place of your existing QTX microphone is straightforward, since it is built to match the same portable PA range.
If you already own a Busker, Quest or PAL unit, this headset gives you a simple way to swap from a handheld mic (US: mic) to a headset without buying a new receiver. It keeps the same VHF frequency your PA is tuned to, so setup stays quick. Check that your unit runs on 174.1MHz before ordering, as QTX supplies matching microphones across several frequencies to avoid clashes between multiple systems in the same space.
