Unrivaled Quality

The DCR822 includes an extended operating range rivaling the best analog and Digital Hybrid Wireless® systems with continuously tunable tracking filters covering 470.100 – 614.375 MHz. The innovative Vector Diversity technology raises the bar for digital transmission integrity with two RF front ends per channel and a unique phase-matching system. The extremely robust RF front ends of the receiver will hold up in severe RF environments and close carrier spacing, whether analog or digital. The DCR822 also has a flexible output routing scheme, allowing a variety of applications including Talkback.

RECORDING

The DCR822 has a built-in recorder, that is designed for use with microSDHC memory cards. The larger XC and UC cards use a different formatting method and bus structure and are NOT compatible with the recorder. ONLY microSDHC memory cards should be used.

MicroSDHC Speed Class Chart

They are available in capacities from 4GB to 32GB. Look for the Speed Class 10 cards (as indicated by a C wrapped around the number 10), or the UHS Speed Class I cards (as indicated by the numeral 1 inside a U sym- bol). Also, note the microSDHC Logo.
