Thats unfair :-( I contribute all year, just not a frequently as some ;-)
I posted a wonderful pic of KISS Alive 2 last week.
The show is very full, quite unexpectedly full. I've never had a waiting list before!
If any space becomes available, I will let you know @SmoothHoundUK
Lots of people do use them on their pedal boards. The receiver is pretty small so doesn't take up much room.
I only posted twice. Honest!
Let me know if you'd like to come round to Smooth Hound HQ for a try out.
The band I play in use a L6 wireless but due to some accidental damage (and me not being able to get cost price replacement parts) we are looking at options for our bass players rig. How does it work with another wireless system operating on the same stage?
There are limitations to the L6 system in terms of error correction (we use RF1 for greater packet size in four bands) and so will your system work in conjunction with this or is there a potential for drop out?
Thanks :-)
The slightly longer explanation is that all of the L6 wireless units can be switched to operate on one from 6/12 available 'channels' where a channel actually means a selection of four (sometimes five) frequencies in the 2.4GHz band. The frequencies used are published here. When switched to a particular channel, it will stick to those four frequencies.
The Classic also uses four frequencies but selects them from 79 available. If it detects interference (from, for example, an L6 unit) on a particular frequency then it will automatically stop using that frequency and select a different one. Each set automatically and continually adjusts which frequencies it is using to find the clearest region of the band.
FYI, the leather cigarette pack pouches marketed at a certain type of biker (yes, I've owned one ) work very well for attaching guitar wireless packs to straps. Does look like the Smooth Hound's a bit smaller than the Shure and Line 6 ones I've employed this for though.

EDIT: one of these would probably work quite well: http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B003ZJOBEE?dpID=41my55LA2JL&dpSrc=sims&preST=_SL500_SR73%2C135_&refRID=WN0GCRQJ5R9DD0N7NZGF&ref_=pd_rhf_sc_s_cp_2
@SmoothHoundUK, if you don't mind me asking, why did you decide to use a hinged jack instead of a simple jack input (mirroring the "Output" one)?
It seems to me that it would have worked as well and make the unit cheaper to produce, even though it'd require for a short lead to connect the guitar to the unit.
The main reason is to keep the transmitter as small as possible. It'd be a good deal bigger with a jack socket fitted in it. I understand that this design decision splits opinion but I wanted to make the smallest coolest looking thing that I could. Having a small plugin transmitter also makes switching guitars much easier as well as using the system around the house without a strap. Chris
