The PT470 is an analog professional wireless body-pack transmitter in a small, rugged housing. A pilot tone transmission prevents unexpected startup noise, continuously sending transmitter data, including low battery information, to the receiver. With the integrated charging contacts, a standard NiMH rechargeable battery can be charged inside the transmitter. An optional RMS4000 external mute switch allows the user to mute the transmitter remotely. Its professional mini XLR audio connector makes the body pack compatible with a broad range of lavalieres and headset.
