tors, air ducts, or amplifiers and do not expose it to direct sun-

3. HT 300 Handheld Transmitter

The HT 300 handheld transmitter specifically designed for the
WMS 300 wireless microphone system can be combined with
three interchangeable microphone elements, the D 3700 WL,
D 3800 WL, and C 5900 WL. The HT 300 transmitter op-
erates in the high-band UHF range between 770 MHz and
950 MHz and lets you select one of 16 carrier frequencies.
The transmitting antenna is protected from damage by an im-
pact resistant plastic cover. The controls are easy to locate
and recessed in the case in order to prevent accidental ac-
tuation.
The HT 300 is exceptionally rugged to survive tough handling
on stage.
