I thought the official story was that they were never legal, the
difference being that they're enforcing it now.

Yeah, but it (the ebay unit) is in the 740-776 band. No longer legal.
I will call Rob.

Call Rob Berkman at 301-946-8808. He should be able to give you a
considerably better price or offer an alternative. Very knowledgeable
guy. They ship too. If he doesn't pick up try back. They are extremely
busy.
Here's a used G2:

I'd pair it up with a better mic. I've always been partial to the
MKE-2 but its pricey. Rode probably makes something cost effective
that isn't horrible.

I have heard good things about this system. Just wish I could find a
used one for about half that amount...

Arguably one of the best portable systems there is.

Didn’t like the audio of the shotgun mic I got last week. Picks up too
much ambient noise.
So, looking at wireless mics this morning. Too many choices. Lots of
folks selling high end stuff on ebay that is illegal to use. Huge
price range, all the way from $10 to $1000 systems.
I think I want UHF. But then when I look at those there are
performance reviews on amazon all over the map too. I think I want a
small receiver that can fit on a camera shoe.
I know I want a clip on mic. I know I need to stay under 600 MHz, not
totally sure you are legal in the 500 MHz ranger unless you get a part
74 license....
Arrgh.
Love to have recommendations.
