User manual SENNHEISER SK 1008-3

[. . . ] the microport installation has been tested and licenced by the German Central Telecommunication Board (FTZ) and by equivalent institutions of other countries. However, the purchaser of this equipment is responsible for obtaining the licence to operate it from the appropriate authorities. In the Federal Republic of Germany the attached form can be used for the application. The basic model of :he transmitter SK 1008-3 is designed for the three frequencies 36. [. . . ] Proper battery contact will be obtained only when correct polarity is observed. Then the cover must be closed and the microphone can be fitted. Flexible antenna must be screwed to the thread at the bottom of the transmitter (Fig. It is important for good radiation of the high frequency signal to have this antenna stretched vertically. The transmitter and hence the antenna should be mounted as high as possible when microphones are employed which are connected to the transmitter via cable. 5) have been developped especially for use with the transmitter SK 1008. The plug-in microphone MD 1008 with omnidirectional characteristic is preferable whenever it is essential to obtain minimum sensitivity To vibration and during interviews where - especially several persons Speak into the microphone from different directions. However, where there is a high ambient noise level, reverberation or the possibility of acoustical feedback it is recommended to use a plug-in microphone with directional characteristic. For this application the two models MD4008 and MKE 4008 are available. In comparison to the dynamic plug-in microphones the MKE 4008 has an extended frequency range which results in an improved reproduction of the deep frequencies below 300 Hz. The three plug-in microphones are interchangeable against one another. with the locking knobs G) at the transmitter (Fig. 6) depressed the microphones can be pulled off. They form an organic unit in conjunction with the SK 1008 although they are easily detachable. The combination can be used as a hand-held microphone or as a lavalier microphone. If it is worn as a lavalier microphone aspace will be kept between the transmitter and the clothing by means of a special suspension to minimize the transmission of rubbing noise. 6) is fitted to the transmitter by inserting the tappets of the holder @ into the holes at the side of the transmitter housing @)and then turning the spacer upwards. After hanging the cord round the neck it must be put into the hole <D at the spacer. [. . . ] At medium speech volume and with a microphone spacing of about 20 cm the control should be set at approximately "4". if the microphone spacing is increased or if loudness is reduced it will be necessary to advance the control accordingly. On the other hand loud speech or a reduction in microphone distance requires a lower setting. To facilitate precise matching of the system in studio operation it should be mentioned that correct adjustment of the sensitivity control is obtained when the audio output of the receiver EM 1008 supplies 1.
