Description
The RE3-BPCL bodypack set is a UHF wireless audio system engineered to deliver clear speech reproduction and dependable wireless performance. It pairs a 1/2-rack diversity receiver with a compact all-metal bodypack transmitter and a cardioid lavalier microphone. The system operates across 488 to 524 MHz to provide a broad selection of usable frequencies.
Key features include a cardioid lavalier capsule that reduces rear pickup and increases gain-before-feedback, adjustable transmitter sensitivity and attenuation, and selectable RF output levels. The receiver provides diversity reception to minimize dropouts and a clear backlit LCD for menu navigation. Ultrasonic sync and dedicated control buttons make frequency selection and transmitter pairing straightforward.
Technical performance highlights include a frequency response suited to speech (51 Hz to 16 kHz dependent on mic), 1440 RF channel frequencies across the 488 to 524 MHz band, and selectable transmitter RF power settings (10 mW/20 mW). The system supports 10 MHz tuning bandwidth and synchronous configuration between receiver and transmitter for stable operation. Two AA batteries power the transmitter for approximately eight hours of runtime.
Connectivity is provided by balanced XLR and unbalanced 1/4 in line outputs on the receiver, removable external antennas, and a TA4F microphone connector on the bodypack. The receiver is rackmountable using the included half-rack hardware and the bodypack features recharging contacts compatible with the optional BC2 charging station. The backlit LCD shows battery, frequency, KeyLock, and mute status.
Typical applications include theater and stage presentations, broadcast and field interviews, film and TV production, and corporate presentations where clear, intelligible speech is essential. The cardioid lavalier improves isolation in mixed-sound environments and reduces ambient pickup for tighter vocal reproduction. Diversity reception and adjustable transmitter settings help maintain reliable RF performance in challenging venues.
The RE3-BPCL is built for fast setup and reliable daily use – the receiver acts as the system control hub while the bodypack provides a rugged metal housing and flexible power options. Simple menu navigation, ultrasonic sync, and robust mechanical construction make the system suitable for repeated deployments in production and rental contexts. The result is a focused speech-oriented wireless system that reduces setup time and improves workflow efficiency.
