how do I know if this mic is usable for the DC area UHF Multi-Frequency on the Shure slx24/sm58 handheld wireless system, H5

You need to consult a spectrum database for your area. According to http://whitespaces.spectrumbridge.com/whitespaces/home.aspx and http://www.google.org/spectrum/whitespace/channel/ your area would best be served by a device that operates on TV channel 32 or 39. Channel 32 covers 578-584 MHz. If you consult the Shure documentation, The SLX devices using the J3 band would best suit your needs, as they operate at 572-596 MHz. The SLX series doesn't have a band that operates on channel 39. This device, since it is on the H5 band, would be usable on only part of its range.

I remember it is RCA plug, it would be easier if you use a female to female coupling(around $2 @ RadioShack) then you connect a longer RCA cable and see if it works. I returned my unit after one week because of loud hum when microphone is plugged in.

The different "Bands" talks about the different frequency groups. Band A will be a certain group of frequencies and Band B will be another set if different frequencies and so on. It does not matter which band you get. If you buy 2 of the mics, and they are both in different bands, the Handheld mics will only work with the matching Band Receiver. I would recommend that when you buy a second one, match the same band. That way if your running out of the house, you don't grab a Band A Mic and a Band C receiver. Hope this answers your question.Good Luck

This is used with GTD Audio G-787H UHF Diversity Wireless Microphone System or GTD Audio G-788H 2x800 Channel Diversity UHF Wireless microphone mic system base.This is not a stand-alone unit, only a replacement microphone/transmitter.The system is a tad pricey (not for the sound or what you get) but the great thing about this versus other systems, is that you can buy these spare mics and if one of your mics has an issue, you can replace it for $35 instead of replacing the whole system.

You will need a 1/4 to 1/8 adapter though. I suggest getting a self-powered mic still. this signal may be weak.

Yes, I'm using Dragon NaturallySpeaking 12. This mic has worked well for over a year and a half and counting.

i would research wireless mics, most of them are compatible, and will pick up the signal from the unit.

Save your money and get something like a Shure BLX1288/PG85 Wireless Combo System with PG58 Handheld and PG185 Lavalier Microphones, it has less microphones but will work 100% of the time. This system was nothing but junk for me too.

Yes indeed. We use it weekly with both wired and wireless mics. No problems.

It depends on what dynamic microphones you are using. Most will be fine, but you will have to check with each microphone manufacturer individually. Shure SM58 and SM57 will be fine.

You canix and match handheld verses lapel. No problem there. You just need to reset the code (which is simple to do) when you switch out mics.

I'm not sure but in any case I wouldn't buy it just because of its severely limited compatibility. Ideally you want a mic that will plug into anything and work. This isn't it.

With a good mic easy. I have a cheap mic and it sounds like crap. I bought a set of Shure PGXD24/Beta58A Digital Wireless System with Beta 58A Mic and it sounds GREAT!

I'm not sure. Is there an input on the radio for a mic? If so, does it match the one that is on the radio? (I'm not familiar with the handhelds) Here is a site with wire diagrams (http://www.walcottcb.com/microphone_wiring.php)Sorry I can't give you a yes or no answer

Don't know, haven't used it in that capacity. If the Dragon mic requires a true stereo input, it probably won't work because the usb adapter is mono and puts the same signal in the left and right inputs.

We have used our sound system at many functions, but have never used more than one mic. I would think that if the wireless frequency was the same, it would work. It's certainly worth a try.
