General Description
The SKP 3000 is a miniature plug-on transmitter that enables any cabled microphone to be instantly converted to RF wireless operation simply by plugging the transmitter onto the microphone connector. The SKP 3000 has an electronically balanced input and 48 V phantom powering for condenser microphones. The transmitter is available in nine frequency variants and is compatible with all 3000 and 5000 Series receivers. It is an ideal choice for ENG applications and an invaluable tool for the broadcast, film and video sound recording professional.

CONSUMER ALERT
Most users do not need a license to operate this wireless microphone system. Nevertheless, operating this microphone system without a license is subject to certain restrictions: the system may not cause harmful interference; it must operate at a low power level (not in excess of 50 milliwatts); and it has no protection from interference received from any other device. Purchasers should also be aware that the FCC is currently evaluating use of wireless microphone systems, and these rules are subject to change. For more information, call the FCC at 1-888-CALL-FCC (TTY: 1-888-TELL-FCC) or visit the FCC’s wireless microphone website at

Glossary
| Compander |
| Also known as noise reduction system. A system which improves the signal-to-noise ratio by compressing the dynamics on the transmitter side using a compressor, and subsequently restores the normal dynamics on the receiver side using an expander. |
| In compliance with |
| Gives the guidelines and requirements which have to be met before a unit can be put onto the market. Such guidelines are published by e.g. standards committees, telecommunications authorities etc. |
| Operating time |
| States how long a unit can be continuously used with one set of batteries / rechargeable accupack. |
| Peak deviation |
| Maximum permissible deviation for FM. |
| Power supply (plug-on transmitter) |
| Description of the power source used for powering a unit, for example mains, battery, rechargeable accupack, etc. |
| RF output power |
| Output power measured at the antenna socket. |
| Switching bandwidth |
| The frequency band in which frequencies can be switched directly. |
| Total harmonic distortion (THD) |
| Total harmonic distortion is a measure of non-linear harmonic distortion and is given in %. Non-linear harmonic distortions are signals which were not present in the original before the signal was converted by the headphones. These unwanted signals are caused by the diaphragm, whose movements do not precisely move in time with the electric signals that cause it to move. Unfortunately, this is a feature of all electroacoustic transducers. Although it cannot be completely eliminated, suitable steps can be taken to minimise it. However, the user is not interested in why this distortion takes place but in how great the level of distortion must be for it to become perceptible. According to the findings of several research projects, a total harmonic distortion of 1% in the frequency range of 100 to 2000 Hz is imperceptible. Below 100 Hz, the perceptibility threshold lies at 10%. |
