PR-216 OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Frequency Selection (216-217 MHz)
The PR-216 personal receiver can operate on one of 76 available channels
between 216 MHz and 217 MHz. COMTEK’s channel designations indicate
both standard narrow-band channels and high-fidelity,
wide-band companded channels. Channels 1-40 are
narrow- band channels (5 kHz deviation) offering
compatibility with other manufacturers’ receivers
such as the Phonak MicroEar. Channels 41-60
are high-fidelity, wide-band companded channels
(10 kHz deviation) for use with COMTEK transmitters.
Channels 61-79 are standard narrow-band channels for
compatibility with other manufacturers. COMTEK transmitters
automatically transmit the proper modulation when set to channels
1-40 for narrow-band or 41-60 for wide-band companded channels.
After you have determined the channel on which you are going to operate,
position the two rotary switches to indicate the channel. The left rotary
switch is for tens and the right rotary switch is for ones. To select channel 41
(216.0250 MHz), position the left rotary switch to point to 4 (X10), and
position the right rotary switch to point to 1 (X1). Refer to frequency charts
on pages 5 and 6 for selectable frequencies.
Multiple Channel Operation
Simultaneous operation with more than two channels
requires frequency coordination to avoid intermodulation
interference. This interference could result in poor or unusable performance.
When multiple transmitters are broadcasting, the RF signals will “mix”
together generating additional signals. If these product frequencies are
too close to a frequency which you are using, you will experience this
type of interference. This condition is common to all radio receivers to some
extent. This interference produces whistle and whine type sounds
and/or reductions of range. To avoid this type of interference, you should
select frequencies from one of the standard groups (see frequency group
charts on page 5), or you can use COMTEK’s frequency selection guide
software to determine appropriate frequencies. Contact COMTEK to
obtain a free copy of the frequency selection software or download it off
the web at www.comtek.com/software.htm.
