  If you are experiencing audio dropouts with your Samson Microphone system, the transmitter might be too far away from the receiver. Try moving closer to the receiver or repositioning the antennas. Also, remove any sources that may cause RF interference, such as cell phones, cordless phones, lighting equipment, or computers.
