Does this unit occupy one of the zones on your receiver to broadcast.?

I don't know what you mean by zones. I would not place this unit next to a receiver. Because it's going to eliminate every station. I was suggest at least having at 12 feet away from any receiver

I don't know for sure what you mean by zones, but you just find a frequency that is quiet and set both the unit and your receiver on same frequency and you shouldn't have a problem. You can change the frequency anytime you want, you just have to find a quiet location on your receive'rs FM dial and set the Unit at same frequency.

Yes it does. To transmit a signal to the receiver, the transmiter must have power. This is why both units have to be powered on. But, they take very little power. Just enough to have the red light glow on each!

Yes, and it is surprisingly sensitive. I get numerous stations in a fringe area. And it has station presets. Handy gadget.

My antenna gets signals from a station that is north of us just as well as it receives signals from the south. The station to the north is closer though... As far as re-configuring it, I have no experience with this.

My transmitter is broadcasting from my computer, I set the volumn on the transmitter in the middle, maybe just a little right, like 1:00 position, then I adjust the volumn on my computer higher, works for me

Yes it does. Only zone one though but if you have the marantz app for your phone, you can turn on zone two from there.

no it cannotthe a/b switch is a channel not an independent zone you would need to upgrade to a multi zone receiver

No it does not but you could possibly move the receiver where you are working and/or turn up the volume. It is loud when it is fully increased and states: "Alert Zone 1" ,2,3 or what ever you set it for. I have ringing in my ears and can hear it from about 30' in our house with the volume low.

My husband has connected our external TV speakers to the unit and turned off the TV speakers. He said it was not very user friendly, but with perseverance it can be done. Sorry, I don't know what zone 2 is.

You can power on the remote zones but the receiver does not turn on via the network for the main zone. Further if main zone is off zones 2&3 do not respond.

No. Both units should have clear path between them for best performance. Transmitter and receiver.

For my other Onkyo receiver in order to get zone 2 to work, you must use an audio component wire connection (two wires typically one red one white) - not the HDMI. In my setup for example, I have all my devices connected into my TV (ROKU, cable, bluray) - including my receiver (ARC from receiver). I also ran the two wire audio component from my TV to my receiver. My zone 2 source is setup as TV - then whatever I watch on TV (ROKU, cable, bluray) is available through zone 2. In the receiver model I have I needed to select power zone 2 on in the Receiver menu also.

It is 2 zone system, but I haven't tried to use zone 2 yet. You could add a swith/splitter to Zone2 so you can split Zone 2 in two ways

I'm running two receivers successfully. However, your transmitter may not be able to direct enough signal to all receivers if they're scattered in various directions. My two receivers are both on similar azimuth angles, but on different floors (different elevation angles). Fortunately, they're also relatively close to the transmitter, so it's working for me.

It should they just change the signal from ir to rf u just have to place the receiver in the proper area or use the little ir peice and place it in front of box

Not to my knowledge. Interesting idea, though. The monitoring unit in baby room broadcasts to the receivers. The receivers probably will not broadcast without modifications.

The on/off switch does just that. When its engaged it overrides the station you picked it to and plays what ever is connected to it through that station. When off that station is back to normal. Very few stations use the preset channels on the device however. If you don't turn it off you will likely have static on other stations due to the units power capabilities
