New Quarter-Watt Super Mini Transmitter Now Available from Lectrosonics

The Lectrosonics SMQ 250mW Super Mini transmitter has been approved by the FCC and is now available from the factory. The 250mW RF output of the SMQ provides exceptional range and resistance to interference. At the same time, the RF-isolated output reduces IM products when the transmitter is used in multi-channel systems.
Similar to the SM transmitter introduced in 2005, the SMQ features a membrane-switch front panel, LCD display, and machined-aluminum housing. Also, like the SM and SMD transmitters, the new SMQ
responds to commands generated by the optional RM remote control unit. The SMQ is the latest product in the Digital Hybrid Wireless series of products from Lectrosonics, featuring compandor-free audio and backward-compatibility with older analog wireless systems from Lectrosonics and two other manufacturers.

The microphone input circuit for the SM family is a new-generation design using a current-servo architecture to accept the widest range of microphone sensitivities without distortion. The SMQ is slightly larger than the original SM in order to accommodate an additional AA battery due to the greater RF output power, and thus is the smallest full-featured 250mW transmitter on the market. The SMQ will ship standard with a leather belt clip pouch and a set of four, 2500mAh rechargeable NiMh AA batteries and a charger. An optional wire belt clip is available for the utmost in low-profile placement on the talent. MSRP: $1,960.
