Lectrosonics SR170AC - Manual (Page 2)

INTRODUCTION
The SR170 AC receiver design is the result of surveying the needs of professional video producers,
audio visual coordinators, and many others in the industry. Numerous conversations with dealers and
end-users have developed the parameters for the design.
The SR170 AC receiver is a fixed frequency design utilizing a quartz crystal oscillator. This assures
that the frequency will not drift and also eliminates the need to "tune" or adjust the receiver every time it
is used. This is the preferred design that professionals have chosen.
Custom made toroidal filters in the front-end reject adjacent channels to avert interference. A noise
reduction "compandor" is used in all Pro-Series systems to suppress audio noise without impairing the
natural dynamics of the audio signal. The receiver is housed in an aluminum extrusion with rugged
connectors for years of professional performance. The SR170 AC receiver is compatible with all
Lectrosonics high-band receivers.
While the SR170 AC was designed primarily to meet the needs of video producers, it has many other
applications in public address.
