I am not sure if the H numbers strictly refer to the frequency range. Are any of these compatible with Shure PG88 Wireless Microphone Mic Receiver H7 536-548 ?
Asked by: Maria
The use of "H9" in reference to the Shure BLX1 Wireless Bodypack Transmitter (H9: 512 to 542 MHz) does indeed refer to the specified frequency range this transmitter operates on. The Shure PG88 receiver is from a discontinued product line and compatible transmitters do not appear to be available any longer unfortunately. Please contact our Pro Audio team via phone, chat, email, or in-store for assistance in choosing a new system.

It’s compatible with receiver BLX J10 584-608?
Asked by: Pedro
Shure BLX J10 and J11 components are not directly compatible with each other. For the best results and functionality, it is advised that you use a BLX transmitter and BLX receiver that are in the same frequency band.

Can I use two bodypacks and two wireless mics simultaneously on the BLX88 H10?
Asked by: Anonymous
No, the Shure BLX88 Dual-Channel Tabletop Wireless Receiver (H10: 542 to 572 MHz) can only be used with two transmitters at the same time. The Shure BLX1 Wireless Bodypack Transmitter (H10: 542 to 572 MHz) and the Shure BLX2/SM58 Handheld Wireless Microphone Transmitter with SM58 Capsule (H10: 542 to 572 MHz) are both compatible transmitters, so you can use any combination of two.

Is it compatible with any mic system

Is it compatible with any mic system
Asked by: Aiden
No. This transmitter can only be used with these Shure receivers- BLX4, BLX4R, and the BLX88. Either receiver must be in the same frequency range as that transmitter, specifically range J10. Please also note, that transmitter has a ta4m connection, and can only be used with mics wired for Shure systems utilizing a ta4f on the mic.

Can I use two bodypack with the same frequency (H10: 542 to 572 MHz) simultaneously on the BLX88 H10?
Asked by: Anonymous
Two Shure BLX1-H10 Wireless Bodypack Transmitters can be used simultaneously with the Shure BLX88-H10 Dual-Channel Tabletop Wireless Receiver. Each channel on the receiver will automatically tune to a different frequency within the H10 frequency band (542 to 572 MHz) so both transmitters can be used at the same time.

question

Is there any body pack receiver that can be used with this product? I already own the BLX1 transmitter H8 but I am trying to see if it will work with a portable mixer for a film shoot.
Asked by: Anonymous
There is no body pack receiver for the BLX wireless systems. Only tabletop or rack mounted receivers.
