M170-BGO
SUPPLEMENTAL SHEET
The M170-BGO was designed specifically for bingo halls. This transmitter is a lower cost alternative to
a traditional system that uses multiple receivers. Since all the transmitters are on the same frequency,
only one receiver is necessary. The special design of the transmitter solves the problem of multiple
transmitters. Normally, if you have two transmitters operating at the same time, they must be on
different frequencies. The M170-BGO automatically shuts off when the switch is released.
The M170-BGO transmitter is activated by pushing the button on the side panel. Since you are only
"on the air" as long as you hold the button in, several transmitters on the same frequency will not
interfere with each other.
The transmitter must be held up to your mouth as you speak. A standard lavalier microphone can be
substituted for the plug-in microphone if you wish to wear the transmitter on your belt rather than
around your neck. When worn on the belt, the neck strap (the antenna) must not be wrapped around
the transmitter.
