Features

The URX-P03D UHF Synthesized Diversity Tuner is a
two-channel portable wireless tuner.
In combination with a compact camcorder or
interchangeable-lens digital camera, the unit can be used
for various purposes, such as ENG (Electronic News
Gathering), EFP (Electronic Field Production), sports
events, and weddings.
This unit is equipped with a DSP for transmission of high-
quality sound using digital compander processing. It can
also be used in combination with current Sony analog
wireless microphone systems (UWP series, WRT series,
WRR series, WRU series) by switching the compander
mode.
The frequency and compander mode set on the unit can be
sent to the transmitter using an infrared communications
link. Used in combination with the Clear Channel Scan
function, this greatly reduces the time required to set
channels.
External microphone input port
The unit is equipped with an external input connector that
supports plug-in power external microphones and Sony
BMP-type lavalier microphones.
Internal mixing function
You can individually assign the audio signal inputs from
tuner 1, tuner 2, and the external microphone to OUTPUT
1 (L channel), OUTPUT 2 (R channel), or both via menu
settings. This allows you to freely mix the audio signals
to be output as stereo or monaural sound and allows for
fast production of materials.
Diversity reception system
The unit employs a space diversity system to minimize
dropouts (true diversity system during one-channel
operation for higher stability).
Compatibility with Sony analog wireless
microphones
The built-in DSP enables digital companding for high-
quality audio transmissions. Switching to compander
mode allows operation in conjunction with Sony analog
wireless microphone system (UWP series and WRT
series) transmitters.
Built-in channel scanning function
The unit includes two built-in frequency scanning
functions; "Clear Chanel Scan" which scans for unused
channels and "Active Channel Scan" which scans for
used channels on which reception is possible. This allows
you to quickly configure stable channels for use.
Built-in infrared communication function
When operating in conjunction with UWP-D series
transmitters, the frequency and compander mode settings
configured on the unit can be sent using the infrared
communication function, allowing you to complete
channel configurations quickly.
Operation via two size AA batteries
The unit will operate for 5 hours on two size AA alkaline
batteries. Nickel metal hydride and lithium batteries can
also be used.
Multi Interface Shoe support
Using the optional SMAD-P3D shoe mount adapter (not
supplied) allows you to mount the unit on cameras
equipped with a Multi Interface Shoe (e.g., Sony video
camera recorders and interchangeable-lens digital
cameras) and send audio signals from the unit to the
camera without cable connections.
