Thanks Henry, that's more information than I got from the Clear-Com announcement. I read "Clear-Com is discontinuing sales and marketing of the Tempest product line." and took it mean EOL.

Still curious about the BTR.

AFAIK, Bosch has not issued an EOL for the BTR 700/800 . . . yet. But they have only a limited amount of certain orphaned parts left.

No definitive info on BTR discontinued - just an industry rumor.

Another good possibility is the New HME DX-410 system shipping in a month or 2.  It is similar to the DX210 systems except with double the audio BW, 2 real 4 wire connections, and smaller (if that's possible) beltpacks.

Of note: the 2 wire and 4 wire can work simultaneously.  This means it can serve as a hybrid on your matrix system to 2 wire as well as interfacing itself.

It can have 15 BP on one base with same limitation of 4 talking at same time.  Still is in 2.4 band but of all the 2.4 comm systems (Tempest, etc) it works the best in congested wifi. 

See press release  HERE

Freespeak II would be even better as long as you are not a rental house - permanent install only.

I respectfully disagree with this.

Several major events have recently involved large amounts of FS II (Baku, Comm. Games, to name but 2), and I quite regularly deploy it on a rental basis. It works very well indeed.

As with everything RF, you need to know your environment, but I wouldn't rule it out of a rental environment.

Thanks, Pete! with the pricing the same as the 210, is there any reason to not go for the 410 system?

What is better telex 800 or telex 80n

I often have both on a job.  The 80N doesn't sound quite as good as the 800.  Additionally the 80N, since it is more software controlled, is harder to use.  On the 800 buttons select what interface and what gain to use. on the 80N you do it through menus.

You would think since the 80N is more software oriented, you could program it from a computer.  Amazingly it cannot.

On the beltpack there are many more settings which get in the way of normal use.  On an 800 it takes only a few button pushes to chane freq the 80N over 10 to do it and get out of the menu.

Personally I don't like the 80N.  My favorite UHF comm is the HME Pro850.  Unfortunately it has reached end of life and is not available any more.

and headsets they are around $10,200
