Wireless Microphones and Canadian UHF Spectrum Changes

Grant's Perspective on ... will your existing wireless microphone work after the Canadian UHF spectrum changes kick in?

We have been seeing tons of advertising about the analog to digital conversion for people that use rabbit ears and antennas to watch television.

I wanted to mention that some wireless microphone users also face some government changes to available wireless microphone frequencies.

If you have a wireless microphone system, you need to check if your microphone's frequency is ok or if you need to make a change. 

TOA Canada has a change overview and a list of their wireless microphone systems that will be affected by the change.

Wireless Micrphone Frequency Changes: Will Your System Still Work?

Grant's Perspective on ... wireless microphone users need to check their unit's operating frequency.

The end of this month will see the  first changes to the use of wireless communications frequencies. Industry Canada has reallocated the 698 - 806 MHz spectrum to make more room for cell phone systems. This means that if you use wireless microphones you need to know what frequency they are set to or you may soon have a rude surprise.

Sennheiser Canada has released details of a trade in allowance for people that have systems that will soon not work properly. A good idea! Contact one of our Inland AV locations for more information on wireless microphone systems.
