RIO RANCHO, NM — Lectrosonics reports that its new SMQ "Super-Mini" quarter-watt wireless transmitter has cleared FCC regulatory requirements and is now available. The SMQ provides a 250mW RF output and RF-isolated output for when the transmitter is used in multi-channel systems. Similar to the SM transmitter introduced by Lectrosonics in 2005, the new SMQ includes a membrane-switch front panel, LCD display and a plated, machined-aluminum housing. Like the company's SM and SMD transmitters, the SMQ responds to commands generated by the optional RM remote control unit. The SMQ is the latest offering in the Digital Hybrid Wireless series of products from Lectrosonics, featuring compandor-free audio and backward-compatibility with older analog wireless systems from Lectrosonics and two additional manufacturers.
The microphone input circuit for Lectrosonics' SM family uses a current-servo architecture. The SMQ is slightly larger than the original SM in order to accommodate an additional AA battery.
The SMQ ships with a leather belt clip pouch and a set of four 2500mAh rechargeable NiMh AA batteries, plus a charger. An optional wire belt clip is available for placement on talent. The new Lectrosonics SMQ "Super-Mini" quarter-watt wireless transmitter carries a MSRP of $1,960. The product is now shipping.
