MR306S Personal Receiver
The Drake MR306S Personal Receiver is a lightweight portable FM receiver. Weighing only 3 ounces, this pocket-sized receiver can be worn inconspicuously and allows the user to move freely. The personal receiver includes comfortable earbuds. Unlike many receivers used for assistive listening or audio monitoring, the MR306S Personal Receiver receives in either monaural or stereo modes.
The MR306S Personal Receiver is simple to operate. A top access thumbwheel provides easy adjustment of volume, while frequency selection is made via push button control. The MR306S Personal Receiver covers 72.0 to 88.0 MHz for coverage of the assistive listening band.
Receive frequencies are stored in the receiver's five programmable memories, allowing easy recall of frequently used frequencies. And the MR306S Personal Receiver has a "lock" feature to prevent the user from accidentally changing receiver settings.
You need not worry about the MR306S Personal Receiver losing power during your event. It can operate continuously for over 30 hours on two "AAA" batteries.
