Zaxcom filtered antenna

I've got the Zaxcom ENG link system, and I think the filter antenna is
a must if you have non Zaxcom receivers in your bag. I had Lectro
201's in block 22, 25 and 27, and my block 21 Zaxcom transmitter showed
up across the entire block on all three while scanning. Once I
attached the filter the RF level from Zaxcom disappeared on the
Lectro's.

Frankly I'd recommend having at least two blocks between a Zaxcom link
and any receiver even with the filter. When I upgraded to 411's
recently I dropped block 22 out of concern the Zaxcom could still get
into it.

BTW, I've had the Zaxcom link for 8 months, and it has been rock solid.
Not one problem. First time I've every felt really confident in my
camera-audio bag link.

Regards,

Fred Schuh

Who was that James, David Lynne?
He does have a filtered antenna setup, he had to because of the RF probs he
was having in the begining, and don't forget, he is doing "Border Security"
with a ton of RF at the airport.
That's why he got the Zaxcoms in the first place == they required 2 channels
to be sent to the camera.
