R LR-100 Stationary Receiver / Power Amplifier www.ListenTech.com Important Things to Note Before Starting Your Installation What is Squelch? The LR-100 is a radio receiver that receives an RF signal from either an LT-800 or LT-700 radio transmitter. Many radio receivers, including the LR-100, include a control called “squelch” that mutes the receiver’s output signal when there is no received RF signal. Without the squelch control, a strong noise is heard at the receiver whenever it is not rece

R LR-100 Stationary Receiver / Power Amplifier www.ListenTech.com Long cable runs can result in signal degradation due to “loss” characteristics of the cable. At 72 MHz, there is a loss of 2dB per 100 feet of cable and at 216 MHz, there is a loss of 5 dB per 100 feet of cable. (A 3dB loss means half of your power has been lost.) However, it is better to suffer coaxial power loss than to try to shoot your signal through obstacles! Obstacles, especially metal, can create drop-outs or reflectio

If you are rack mounting the LR-100, use the optional LA-326 rack mounting kit. This kit allows for single and dual rack mounting, and comes with a security cover. For mounting on vertical or horizontal surfaces, use the optional L bracket mounting kit, part number LA-327. Powering the Unit Note:

The AUXILIARY input consists of a balanced input, combination connector (female XLR and 1/4 in) and two unbalanced phono connectors. All of these inputs are actively mixed together. Thus, any combination of input sources can be used. Input level is adjusted via the front panel trim pot labeled AUX L

R LR-100 Stationary Receiver / Power Amplifier www.ListenTech.com Installation – Remote Control The LR-100 can be programmed (see Set-up – Programming, page 17) so only used channels can be selected. For example: You are broadcasting material on channels A, E and F (72MHz). You would program the LR-100 so that it could only receive these channels. Thus, depression of the front panel UP, DOWN and SEEK would only allow you to select one of these three channels. The UP and DOWN functions can be

This condition will occur if the speaker termi- nals are shorted to each other or if they are shorted to the chassis for over 15 seconds. In this condition, the LR-100 will no longer function normally. If the LR-100 stops functioning nor- mally, do the f

R LR-100 Stationary Receiver / Power Amplifier www.ListenTech.com Troubleshooting The unit does not power up, or it has stopped operating. i. Ensure the power supply is connected properly. ii. The speaker terminals may be shorted (see page 19). The audio is muted occasionally. i. Check to see if the unit is squelching (indicated by the squelch LED). In this case, either improve the RF signal path or adjust the squelch setting for less squelch sensitivity. I hear noise coming from the receiver.
