” I’d expect the live talent to be crafting the show and not listening to the broadcast while the board operator listens to the produced feed, either live, after the board or from the transmitter.”
Your describing either a large talk radio operation or how things used to be done way back in the very early days of broadcasting..not so these days. Most “talent” who spin music would prefer to control their mix while speaking. A second board operator can’t read the talent’s mind and know when to “ride” the controls during the speaking.
“I intend on listening live time to nothing. So the delay/lag won’t really bother me.”
One person operations like most of us are..it wont’ really matter. As I also pointed out, the audience won’t know the difference either.
There are a variety of options available to you, in all of the threads started recently which have been discussed many times before and always led to what’s currently being re-hashed again.
As I suggested to another, might try the search box and find plenty of other suggestions including repetitive suggestions spanning several years.
Either way you go, there are interesting challenges and unique solutions ahead. Trick is to pick one and go with it and see if it will work or not.
With the amount of information stored in the thread archives..and multiple times the information is in there, there is bound to be one that will work for you in your unique situation.
I never was too fancy on co-located equipment away from my sight or reach. Too much liability issues and concern of vandalism. I don’t even like the idea of having the transmitter itself sitting in a box outside on my own property. I prefer it to be inside the same room where the studio gear is. That’s just my preference that works for me.
As to the wireless linking to a transmitter located at some distance where you can’t run any wires, that will have to be set up so the transmitter and receiver gear are powered either by juice from that remote location, or solar powered charging batteries at the same time, which can turn the venture into quite an expensive venture too. If the idea is to make expense as low as possible…your choices become limited at that point and the nice ideas tossed out here and in the abundant repetitive thread archive becomes pointless and the obvious simple solutions will become more relevant.
