FREQUENCY SELECTION GUIDE
The Shure UHF Wireless System is designed for maximum flexibility and versatility in a
variety of applications. Up to 24 Shure UHF Wireless Systems can be operated simulta-
neously in a single installation using the frequency compatibility groups. Please contact
Shure Incorporated if you need additional information or assistance in frequency selection
and setup.
Compatibility Groups
The Shure UHF Wireless System includes 10 groups of compatible channels. If you are
using more than one receiver in the same area, we recommend that you set the receivers
to different frequencies within the same group.
