I just had a shoot where my Sennheiser EW 100 G2 system started acting up. The first 45mins of the shoot was in a hallway and there were no problems with the sound. Then we moved into a conference room where there was audio/visual equipment present. I didn't notice if the a/v equipment was on or not. After five or ten mins. I noticed that the audio would momentarily drop every 4 or 5 seconds. I'm not sure but it seemed that the time between the drops began to get shorter and shorter, or maybe I was just becoming more and more aware of the drops. The RF and AF lights would blink at the drops. Luckily I could get enough sound bites to do what I needed to do but now I'm not sure if the fault is with my system or interference from the a/v equipment in the room. I have never experienced interference like that before and to be honest I'm a little spooked about my equipment. I checked the system when I got home and there were no drop outs. Could it be that it's my equipment going bad and it only starts after the system has been on for a while? When I tested my equipment at home I did leave the system on for about 30min with no dropping. Or was this interference and if so does anyone have suggestions on how to get around the problem?
