The LA-262 has a uni-directional pickup pattern. This means that the microphone’s element
must be oriented towards your mouth. It will not pick up audio very well from the side of the
microphone. The main advantage of this type of microphone is that it helps minimize feedback
and picks up less environmental noise.
Using the LA-262 Over-the-Head Microphone
•Set the microphone sensitivity switch (located inside front cover of the LT-700 Portable FM
Display Transmitter) to the MED position.
•Place the unit over your head and position the microphone as close as possible to your
mouth. For best results the mic element should be 1 to 2 inches from your mouth. This will help
to ensure that the microphone picks up your voice rather than room noise.
•Make sure the microphone is not rubbing on your face or clothing.
•Connect the plug firmly to the microphone jack on the LT-700.
