this is the DMS 300 by Keiji and this is this is the DMS 300 by Keiji and this is this is the DMS 300 by Keiji and this is pretty much a wireless microphone system pretty much a wireless microphone system pretty much a wireless microphone system that Katie makes him recently a cutie that Katie makes him recently a cutie that Katie makes him recently a cutie Hazzard released two fairly new systems Hazzard released two fairly new systems Hazzard released two fairly new systems into the market a AKG DMS 108 kg d NS into the market a AKG DMS 108 kg d NS into the market a AKG DMS 108 kg d NS 300 - day we're talking about the DMS 300 - day we're talking about the DMS 300 - day we're talking about the DMS 300 but almost everything applies to the 300 but almost everything applies to the 300 but almost everything applies to the 100 BOCES since they're pretty much 100 BOCES since they're pretty much 100 BOCES since they're pretty much almost executives and with a few key almost executives and with a few key almost executives and with a few key differences we'll try to point those out differences we'll try to point those out differences we'll try to point those out so this obviously we got this from so this obviously we got this from so this obviously we got this from Amazon this is not a sponsored video no Amazon this is not a sponsored video no Amazon this is not a sponsored video no one paid us for this video no one sent one paid us for this video no one sent one paid us for this video no one sent us this item we bought this item from us this item we bought this item from us this item we bought this item from Amazon warehouse deals we'll talk about Amazon warehouse deals we'll talk about Amazon warehouse deals we'll talk about it it it we used it we'll talk about it and we'll we used it we'll talk about it and we'll we used it we'll talk about it and we'll give you our opinions but just let you give you our opinions but just let you give you our opinions but just let you know this is going to be a real user know this is going to be a real user know this is going to be a real user opinion without any influences from opinion without any influences from opinion without any influences from anybody else but anyways the point is anybody else but anyways the point is anybody else but anyways the point is that we're talking about this system that we're talking about this system that we're talking about this system which is 300 ok and I'm going to give which is 300 ok and I'm going to give which is 300 ok and I'm going to give you a quick information here real quick you a quick information here real quick you a quick information here real quick there are two main big differences with there are two main big differences with there are two main big differences with between the three hundred and 100 there between the three hundred and 100 there between the three hundred and 100 there are a lot of small differences but are a lot of small differences but are a lot of small differences but they're pretty negligible with depending they're pretty negligible with depending they're pretty negligible with depending on what you think but the two big on what you think but the two big on what you think but the two big differences are number one on the DMS differences are number one on the DMS differences are number one on the DMS 300 system the it has the antennas are 300 system the it has the antennas are 300 system the it has the antennas are external they're to external sticking external they're to external sticking external they're to external sticking antennas on DM is 300 and then on the antennas on DM is 300 and then on the antennas on DM is 300 and then on the DMS 300 you can also use up to eight DMS 300 you can also use up to eight DMS 300 you can also use up to eight co-existing systems on the 100 you can co-existing systems on the 100 you can co-existing systems on the 100 you can only use up to four so keep that in mind only use up to four so keep that in mind only use up to four so keep that in mind other small differences are like it has other small differences are like it has other small differences are like it has an ID number here for instead of like an ID number here for instead of like an ID number here for instead of like color coding but I mean pretty much color coding but I mean pretty much color coding but I mean pretty much still gonna be the same so make sure you still gonna be the same so make sure you still gonna be the same so make sure you keep that in mind when we talk about it keep that in mind when we talk about it keep that in mind when we talk about it so before we get into it let me just so before we get into it let me just so before we get into it let me just give you the quick marketing hype they give you the quick marketing hype they give you the quick marketing hype they put on the Box vivid display unravel put on the Box vivid display unravel

working range alright today we're of working range alright today we're of working range alright today we're gonna be talking about the body pac gonna be talking about the body pac gonna be talking about the body pac system but these systems pretty much system but these systems pretty much system but these systems pretty much come in two different configuration you come in two different configuration you come in two different configuration you can get a handheld microphone or you can can get a handheld microphone or you can can get a handheld microphone or you can get a body pack configuration today get a body pack configuration today get a body pack configuration today we're going to talk about party pack but we're going to talk about party pack but we're going to talk about party pack but just know that you can get it in a just know that you can get it in a just know that you can get it in a handheld configuration so I pretty much handheld configuration so I pretty much handheld configuration so I pretty much put this back together we opened it used put this back together we opened it used put this back together we opened it used it for singles three ish weeks and we it for singles three ish weeks and we it for singles three ish weeks and we put it back together because we're gonna put it back together because we're gonna put it back together because we're gonna return it and you have to wait to the return it and you have to wait to the return it and you have to wait to the end of the video to figure out why so end of the video to figure out why so end of the video to figure out why so when you open it and you get two little when you open it and you get two little when you open it and you get two little antennas these are pretty much the Wi-Fi antennas these are pretty much the Wi-Fi antennas these are pretty much the Wi-Fi old-school router Wi-Fi antennas now you old-school router Wi-Fi antennas now you old-school router Wi-Fi antennas now you get keep in mind this is a 2. 4 gigahertz get keep in mind this is a 2. 4 gigahertz get keep in mind this is a 2. 4 gigahertz digital system ok we'll talk more about digital system ok we'll talk more about digital system ok we'll talk more about that later that later that later but here is the body pack portable body but here is the body pack portable body but here is the body pack portable body pack that comes ok this got like a piano pack that comes ok this got like a piano pack that comes ok this got like a piano black tight finish in the front black tight finish in the front black tight finish in the front obviously that logo there's a little obviously that logo there's a little obviously that logo there's a little tiny little screen here we'll show you tiny little screen here we'll show you tiny little screen here we'll show you later stick her in the back it's pretty later stick her in the back it's pretty later stick her in the back it's pretty much all plastic it's got a metal wire much all plastic it's got a metal wire much all plastic it's got a metal wire belt clip power button on top it's got belt clip power button on top it's got belt clip power button on top it's got the TA 4 F connector and the way you the TA 4 F connector and the way you the TA 4 F connector and the way you open it is you press down and push out open it is you press down and push out open it is you press down and push out press down where the little logo is and press down where the little logo is and press down where the little logo is and press out and this thing is powered by press out and this thing is powered by press out and this thing is powered by two double-a batteries two double-a two double-a batteries two double-a two double-a batteries two double-a batteries are included in this at least batteries are included in this at least batteries are included in this at least in the one that I got let's take these in the one that I got let's take these in the one that I got let's take these out two double-a batteries here so two out two double-a batteries here so two out two double-a batteries here so two double-a batteries are included in this double-a batteries are included in this double-a batteries are included in this kit you get there is a link pairing kit you get there is a link pairing kit you get there is a link pairing button right here and then this is the button right here and then this is the button right here and then this is the sensitivity button or sensitivity knob sensitivity button or sensitivity knob sensitivity button or sensitivity knob that you can turn to adjust the that you can turn to adjust the that you can turn to adjust the sensitivity in order to turn it on sensitivity in order to turn it on sensitivity in order to turn it on there's a power button here that serves there's a power button here that serves there's a power button here that serves as a mute button but no return not you as a mute button but no return not you as a mute button but no return not you have to hold this button for a few have to hold this button for a few have to hold this button for a few seconds and then it will turn on I think seconds and then it will turn on I think seconds and then it will turn on I think unless I installed the batteries unless I installed the batteries unless I installed the batteries incorrectly let's see here did we install the batteries backwards did we install the batteries backwards did we install the batteries backwards yeah no we did it yeah no we did it yeah no we did it so the batteries going this way goes in so the batteries going this way goes in so the batteries going this way goes in this way let's see why does this nut or this way let's see why does this nut or this way let's see why does this nut or not there you go alright so battery not there you go alright so battery not there you go alright so battery turns on turns on turns on I mean system turns on obviously you can I mean system turns on obviously you can I mean system turns on obviously you can see it's got a three bar LED status see it's got a three bar LED status see it's got a three bar LED status gauge for battery life and little ID gauge for battery life and little ID gauge for battery life and little ID so here's a quip if you hold this button so here's a quip if you hold this button so here's a quip if you hold this button for a second it will go to mute in the for a second it will go to mute in the for a second it will go to mute in the little red LEDs you turn red or a little little red LEDs you turn red or a little little red LEDs you turn red or a little LED she turn right at me if you press it LED she turn right at me if you press it LED she turn right at me if you press it just real quick it will not unmute you just real quick it will not unmute you just real quick it will not unmute you have to actually press and hold for have to actually press and hold for have to actually press and hold for about a second and then it should mute about a second and then it should mute about a second and then it should mute and unmute there you go okay so if we and unmute there you go okay so if we and unmute there you go okay so if we just do a quick press won't do anything just do a quick press won't do anything just do a quick press won't do anything make sure you keep that in mind but that make sure you keep that in mind but that make sure you keep that in mind but that is pretty much the body practice and the is pretty much the body practice and the is pretty much the body practice and the build is almost entirely plastic feels build is almost entirely plastic feels build is almost entirely plastic feels relatively pretty cheap probably the relatively pretty cheap probably the relatively pretty cheap probably the cheapest feeling build quality I've ever cheapest feeling build quality I've ever cheapest feeling build quality I've ever felt in your pro audio pack on the main felt in your pro audio pack on the main felt in your pro audio pack on the main mainstream systems so the model number mainstream systems so the model number mainstream systems so the model number on this one is PT 300 so AKG has a on this one is PT 300 so AKG has a on this one is PT 300 so AKG has a pretty fairly naming scheme pretty easy pretty fairly naming scheme pretty easy pretty fairly naming scheme pretty easy it's pretty straightforward PT means it's pretty straightforward PT means it's pretty straightforward PT means portable transmitter 300 okay you get portable transmitter 300 okay you get portable transmitter 300 okay you get that obviously you get the manual which that obviously you get the manual which that obviously you get the manual which almost nobody reads let's talk about almost nobody reads let's talk about almost nobody reads let's talk about this receiver here okay so this is the this receiver here okay so this is the this receiver here okay so this is the receiver for the DMS 200 system it's got receiver for the DMS 200 system it's got receiver for the DMS 200 system it's got two external antenna ports here now you two external antenna ports here now you two external antenna ports here now you stick the antennas onto like so right it stick the antennas onto like so right it stick the antennas onto like so right it has a same type of piano black type has a same type of piano black type has a same type of piano black type finish screen on the front it's a finish screen on the front it's a finish screen on the front it's a fingerprint magnet obviously a little fingerprint magnet obviously a little fingerprint magnet obviously a little button here that's a little nod that button here that's a little nod that button here that's a little nod that also serves as a button and that's also serves as a button and that's also serves as a button and that's pretty much all the controls you really pretty much all the controls you really pretty much all the controls you really get on the front will turn on you'll see get on the front will turn on you'll see get on the front will turn on you'll see the LEDs but the build quality on this the LEDs but the build quality on this the LEDs but the build quality on this thing almost is almost entirely plastic thing almost is almost entirely plastic thing almost is almost entirely plastic - feels relatively pretty cheap probably - feels relatively pretty cheap probably - feels relatively pretty cheap probably the cheapest and lightest pro audio the cheapest and lightest pro audio the cheapest and lightest pro audio receiver that we have ever touched - receiver that we have ever touched - receiver that we have ever touched - felt what they're used in the mainstream felt what they're used in the mainstream felt what they're used in the mainstream brands remember I'll keep that in mind brands remember I'll keep that in mind brands remember I'll keep that in mind oh there's a power button right here oh there's a power button right here oh there's a power button right here under this um antenna that I mind it's under this um antenna that I mind it's under this um antenna that I mind it's to go to the back here it's got a barrel to go to the back here it's got a barrel to go to the back here it's got a barrel port for a 9 volt DC end uses roughly port for a 9 volt DC end uses roughly port for a 9 volt DC end uses roughly 1. 3 amps it's got two RJ 12 ports for 1. 3 amps it's got two RJ 12 ports for 1. 3 amps it's got two RJ 12 ports for sink and sink out and what the purpose sink and sink out and what the purpose sink and sink out and what the purpose of that is if you have multiple systems of that is if you have multiple systems of that is if you have multiple systems you can link them together for instance you can link them together for instance you can link them together for instance if I had two or two let's say I had if I had two or two let's say I had if I had two or two let's say I had three systems but the system here stack three systems but the system here stack three systems but the system here stack the other system on top so that their the other system on top so that their the other system on top so that their system on top on the first system you system on top on the first system you system on top on the first system you would come out of sync out and go to would come out of sync out and go to would come out of sync out and go to sinking of the second one and come out sinking of the second one and come out sinking of the second one and come out of sinking of the second one and go in of sinking of the second one and go in of sinking of the second one and go in to sink in of the to sink in of the to sink in of the one and then go out of sync out of the one and then go out of sync out of the one and then go out of sync out of the third one and go sink in to the first third one and go sink in to the first third one and go sink in to the first one okay that way pretty much creates an one okay that way pretty much creates an one okay that way pretty much creates an entire loop and they can all communicate entire loop and they can all communicate entire loop and they can all communicate together that is primarily used for when together that is primarily used for when together that is primarily used for when you're using multiple systems together you're using multiple systems together you're using multiple systems together like I said on the third DMS 300 system like I said on the third DMS 300 system like I said on the third DMS 300 system you can use up to eight systems together you can use up to eight systems together you can use up to eight systems together or so they say but the way you can do or so they say but the way you can do or so they say but the way you can do that is kind of you can what do you call that is kind of you can what do you call that is kind of you can what do you call it link them together and use them it link them together and use them it link them together and use them simultaneously the good thing about that simultaneously the good thing about that simultaneously the good thing about that they can all coordinate with each other they can all coordinate with each other they can all coordinate with each other channel time frequency whatever they're channel time frequency whatever they're channel time frequency whatever they're using so that when they're all trying to using so that when they're all trying to using so that when they're all trying to get the same clear channels and time get the same clear channels and time get the same clear channels and time slots that transmit on they're not slots that transmit on they're not slots that transmit on they're not fighting each other and they're working fighting each other and they're working fighting each other and they're working as one unison units on unit one unit as one unison units on unit one unit as one unison units on unit one unit instead of three different units pretty instead of three different units pretty instead of three different units pretty much like I said you can do that up to much like I said you can do that up to much like I said you can do that up to eight so it's not just three here's the eight so it's not just three here's the eight so it's not just three here's the unbalanced port so if you need unbalanced port so if you need unbalanced port so if you need unbalanced here is the XLR port if you unbalanced here is the XLR port if you unbalanced here is the XLR port if you need a balanced and then it has an need a balanced and then it has an need a balanced and then it has an attenuation switch you can go from zero attenuation switch you can go from zero attenuation switch you can go from zero DB or negative 30 DB I'm sure you little DB or negative 30 DB I'm sure you little DB or negative 30 DB I'm sure you little bit more of that up closely but it's got bit more of that up closely but it's got bit more of that up closely but it's got a little rubber feet on the bottom that a little rubber feet on the bottom that a little rubber feet on the bottom that helps prevent from sliding too much but helps prevent from sliding too much but helps prevent from sliding too much but that's that's pretty much it and if you that's that's pretty much it and if you that's that's pretty much it and if you ever get this you pick it up and see and ever get this you pick it up and see and ever get this you pick it up and see and you'll see why the build or use you you'll see why the build or use you you'll see why the build or use you would see what I mean when I say that would see what I mean when I say that would see what I mean when I say that their quality is extremely cheap and their quality is extremely cheap and their quality is extremely cheap and feels like the cheapest thing ever felt feels like the cheapest thing ever felt feels like the cheapest thing ever felt for a pro audio receiver here's the for a pro audio receiver here's the for a pro audio receiver here's the power brick the power brick nothing too power brick the power brick nothing too power brick the power brick nothing too fancy standard wall work a non polarized fancy standard wall work a non polarized fancy standard wall work a non polarized plug let's plug it in and you get this plug let's plug it in and you get this plug let's plug it in and you get this plug it in right here plug it in right here plug it in right here alright so you plugged it in I should alright so you plugged it in I should alright so you plugged it in I should power on there you go power on there you go power on there you go plug it in and that's what happens when plug it in and that's what happens when plug it in and that's what happens when you power it on so I know how to keep it you power it on so I know how to keep it you power it on so I know how to keep it have it right here from name purpose of have it right here from name purpose of have it right here from name purpose of the review but minimum working distance the review but minimum working distance the review but minimum working distance is really you really want to keep it is really you really want to keep it is really you really want to keep it about six feet away in order yeah about six feet away in order yeah about six feet away in order yeah roughly about six feet away so they can roughly about six feet away so they can roughly about six feet away so they can work properly but also in here is the work properly but also in here is the work properly but also in here is the cable for your instrument see this cable for your instrument see this cable for your instrument see this little ta four F connector plug in here little ta four F connector plug in here little ta four F connector plug in here and then you have your quarter inch Jack and then you have your quarter inch Jack and then you have your quarter inch Jack right here for right here for right here for guitar violin whatever you're playing guitar violin whatever you're playing guitar violin whatever you're playing and it's got this rj12 cable that you and it's got this rj12 cable that you and it's got this rj12 cable that you can use something come all together can use something come all together can use something come all together we're not gonna talk about this one sim we're not gonna talk about this one sim we're not gonna talk about this one sim I said we're gonna put this back alright I said we're gonna put this back alright I said we're gonna put this back alright guys that's pretty much what you get in guys that's pretty much what you get in guys that's pretty much what you get in the box when you get the kit or when you the box when you get the kit or when you the box when you get the kit or when you buy the kit so let's talk about buy the kit so let's talk about buy the kit so let's talk about microphone system in general so when it microphone system in general so when it microphone system in general so when it comes to wireless microphone systems comes to wireless microphone systems comes to wireless microphone systems either pretty much too kind so analog either pretty much too kind so analog either pretty much too kind so analog they're digital analog usually a little they're digital analog usually a little they're digital analog usually a little bit older but analog has a low benefit bit older but analog has a low benefit bit older but analog has a low benefit to it where it's a little faster to it where it's a little faster to it where it's a little faster generally in terms of latency so this generally in terms of latency so this generally in terms of latency so this one has about 2. 9 milliseconds which is one has about 2. 9 milliseconds which is one has about 2. 9 milliseconds which is fairly low really low actually analog is fairly low really low actually analog is fairly low really low actually analog is even lower than that but the benefit to even lower than that but the benefit to even lower than that but the benefit to digital there's a lot it's sending one digital there's a lot it's sending one digital there's a lot it's sending one in zeros in the audio stream path here in zeros in the audio stream path here in zeros in the audio stream path here so if there's no companding that a lot so if there's no companding that a lot so if there's no companding that a lot less compression or almost no less compression or almost no less compression or almost no compression in that and there's a lot compression in that and there's a lot compression in that and there's a lot less of susceptible to interference and less of susceptible to interference and less of susceptible to interference and audio artifacts so when you send an audio artifacts so when you send an audio artifacts so when you send an analog set no pretty much the waveform analog set no pretty much the waveform analog set no pretty much the waveform gets sent from a transmitter to the gets sent from a transmitter to the gets sent from a transmitter to the receiver and that waveform is a little receiver and that waveform is a little receiver and that waveform is a little bit different depending on what audio is bit different depending on what audio is bit different depending on what audio is going through there so it can expand or going through there so it can expand or going through there so it can expand or control I don't say expand into contract control I don't say expand into contract control I don't say expand into contract but it's pretty much companding and the but it's pretty much companding and the but it's pretty much companding and the audio the receiver has to interpret it audio the receiver has to interpret it audio the receiver has to interpret it and then get it out right so because and then get it out right so because and then get it out right so because it's flying through the air obviously it's flying through the air obviously it's flying through the air obviously since that's pulling interference it may since that's pulling interference it may since that's pulling interference it may have artifacting and stuff like that have artifacting and stuff like that have artifacting and stuff like that digital systems 1 to 0 when when it gets digital systems 1 to 0 when when it gets digital systems 1 to 0 when when it gets sent from the transmitter and someone sent from the transmitter and someone sent from the transmitter and someone and then it ends up here it's pretty and then it ends up here it's pretty and then it ends up here it's pretty much zero not exactly like that but much zero not exactly like that but much zero not exactly like that but that's pretty much the basic idea so that's pretty much the basic idea so that's pretty much the basic idea so it'll generally sound better given the it'll generally sound better given the it'll generally sound better given the same type of system same class of system same type of system same class of system same type of system same class of system so make sure to keep that in mind the so make sure to keep that in mind the so make sure to keep that in mind the other benefit to this one it says it other benefit to this one it says it other benefit to this one it says it says and three times and diversity time says and three times and diversity time says and three times and diversity time frequency and space space two antennas frequency and space space two antennas frequency and space space two antennas frequency it can hop around frequencies frequency it can hop around frequencies frequency it can hop around frequencies we'll talk about that in a second and we'll talk about that in a second and we'll talk about that in a second and time so what does that mean in a digital time so what does that mean in a digital time so what does that mean in a digital system like this you can actually system like this you can actually system like this you can actually transmit the same sound in multiple transmit the same sound in multiple transmit the same sound in multiple different time slots and these are tiny different time slots and these are tiny different time slots and these are tiny tiny time slots so it's getting sent in tiny time slots so it's getting sent in tiny time slots so it's getting sent in multiple different time slots so if multiple different time slots so if multiple different time slots so if there's interference or in one copy or there's interference or in one copy or there's interference or in one copy or whatever you'll pick it up in a second whatever you'll pick it up in a second whatever you'll pick it up in a second copy and this is happening in multiple copy and this is happening in multiple copy and this is happening in multiple frequencies okay not just one at a time frequencies okay not just one at a time frequencies okay not just one at a time so that's actually really good so that's actually really good so that's actually really good makes it a little bit more reliable or makes it a little bit more reliable or makes it a little bit more reliable or supposed to so this one in particular supposed to so this one in particular supposed to so this one in particular isn't 2. 4 gigahertz band of the isn't 2. 4 gigahertz band of the isn't 2. 4 gigahertz band of the frequency spectrum that's good and bad frequency spectrum that's good and bad frequency spectrum that's good and bad why is that bad it's bad because why is that bad it's bad because why is that bad it's bad because primarily there's a lot of Wi-Fi systems primarily there's a lot of Wi-Fi systems primarily there's a lot of Wi-Fi systems in a 2. 4 gigahertz range also bluetooth in a 2. 4 gigahertz range also bluetooth in a 2. 4 gigahertz range also bluetooth also operates the 2. 4 gigahertz and also operates the 2. 4 gigahertz and also operates the 2. 4 gigahertz and there's a bunch of other stuff I'm there's a bunch of other stuff I'm there's a bunch of other stuff I'm shaking who would figure it out so it's shaking who would figure it out so it's shaking who would figure it out so it's very crowded so a lot of 2. 4 gigahertz very crowded so a lot of 2. 4 gigahertz very crowded so a lot of 2. 4 gigahertz water systems are susceptible to a lot water systems are susceptible to a lot water systems are susceptible to a lot of other types of interference but they of other types of interference but they of other types of interference but they usually the people that manufacture D usually the people that manufacture D usually the people that manufacture D types of systems in this case AKG has types of systems in this case AKG has types of systems in this case AKG has tried to mitigate that as much as tried to mitigate that as much as tried to mitigate that as much as possible by implementing a system where possible by implementing a system where possible by implementing a system where the receiver is always constantly the receiver is always constantly the receiver is always constantly scanning for backup frequencies and scanning for backup frequencies and scanning for backup frequencies and always just getting the RF environment always just getting the RF environment always just getting the RF environment to figure out which frequency Channel to figure out which frequency Channel to figure out which frequency Channel and time spots are best to send on so and time spots are best to send on so and time spots are best to send on so when it sends it can send in multiple when it sends it can send in multiple when it sends it can send in multiple different frequencies and multiple different frequencies and multiple different frequencies and multiple different time slots so when you first different time slots so when you first different time slots so when you first turn it on and when you first turn the turn it on and when you first turn the turn it on and when you first turn the system on it's gonna automatically scan system on it's gonna automatically scan system on it's gonna automatically scan and pick the best channel and frequency and pick the best channel and frequency and pick the best channel and frequency and the best buddy call it channels to and the best buddy call it channels to and the best buddy call it channels to transmit and receive on right so when it transmit and receive on right so when it transmit and receive on right so when it does that it'll sync up what the does that it'll sync up what the does that it'll sync up what the transmitter and transmit the audio transmitter and transmit the audio transmitter and transmit the audio signal or whatever's coming through and signal or whatever's coming through and signal or whatever's coming through and then at the same time when it's on its then at the same time when it's on its then at the same time when it's on its gonna scan the environment in real time gonna scan the environment in real time gonna scan the environment in real time all the time I'm not sure exactly how all the time I'm not sure exactly how all

probably be somewhere between 100 somewhere around probably 100 to 300 somewhere around probably 100 to 300 somewhere around probably 100 to 300 times per second and it when it does times per second and it when it does times per second and it when it does that it scans to figure out the best that it scans to figure out the best that it scans to figure out the best frequencies on those time slots and the frequencies on those time slots and the frequencies on those time slots and the time slots to transmit that on so as time slots to transmit that on so as time slots to transmit that on so as you're using it it can always be rolling you're using it it can always be rolling you're using it it can always be rolling and changing all the time and you won't and changing all the time and you
