    Intr oduction Congratulations on purchasing the Samson UHF Synthesized True Diversity Wireless System! Although this product is designed for easy operation, we suggest you take some time out first to go through these pages so you can fully understand how we’ve implemented a number of unique features. Every wireless system consists of at least two ...

    Intr oduction The concept behind a “ true diversity ” wireless system is that a single chassis houses two discrete receivers (called “ channel A ” and “ channel B ” ) instead of one, with both tuned to the same frequency but with each using an independent antenna. A built-in computer chip then continu- ously scans the two receivers and ...
