Lectrosonics SMQa Super-Miniature Microphone Transmitter with Pouch (Frequency Block 944)

The Lectrosonics SMQa sub-miniature wireless transmitter incorporates Lectrosonics patented Digital Hybrid technology, in a package no bigger than a pager. The SMQa transmitter is miniature in size yet rugged enough to withstand rigorous daily use in the field or in studios.

The SMQa is identical to the SM transmitter and is capable of 256 user selectable UHF frequencies. The SMQa is set apart from the SM transmitter with an impressive 250mW output power for use at extended range. The audio input is a Switchcraft TA5M connection that is capable of -10dB or -20dB gain level. The non-corrosive, machined aluminum casing is splash proof and features an LCD display with membrane switch control panel. The LCD provides frequency and output gain level information while 3-LED indicators provide modulation and power status. The SMQa transmitter is powered with a single AA lithium, NiMH or alkaline battery for up to 4.5 hours (lithium).

Lectrosonics patented Digital Hybrid technology revolutionizes wireless microphone transmission. Digital audio signal is converted and encoded for analog transmission, then decoded and converted back to digital audio at the receiver. The result is an exceptionally low noise floor as the compandor circuit is eliminated and clear audio reception is retained at greater distances.

The SMQa transmitter is completely compatible with all Lectrosonics Digital Hybrid wireless receivers, as well as older Lectrosonics analog receivers.
