0:06 I've got a wireless microphone here from a company called Trantec

All right, folks. I've got a wireless microphone here from a company called Trantec. Now, it's raining outside. I've been on my bike and I've got my shorts on. And what I've done, I've got a PA system upstairs in the bedroom and I've got this plugged into it. So I'm just going to turn the microphone on here. And you may hear some funny sounds in the background. One, two, three, one, two. Can you hear that? One, two, one, two. Right, so what I'm going to do now, I'm going to go outside. It's actually peering down at the moment. I'm going to turn that off. And what I'm going to do, I'm going to see how far I can actually go before we lose the signal. So here we go. Right, bearing in mind it's absolutely hitting it now. Nice. Right, okay. So what I'll have to try and do is cover this camera. I've got to get this bloody wet. Right, here we go. Let's just turn this on now. One, two, three, thank you very much.

1:30 Imagine people walking past now and listening to me

It's speed it down, I'm sorry, right, okay, so I'm quite a distance, well not a distance from there, so about sort of 10-15 metres. Going around here, actually forestry there, and you can still hear the microphone. 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3. I would say I'm about 50 metres away from the house now. There it is there. One, two, three. One, two. I'm going to go into the forest over here. One, two, three. This is really silly. Who cares? Imagine people walking past now and listening to me. Right. One, two, three. About 75 metres away now. And I'm going to go further here into the forest. One, two, three. It's very good actually. It's very good, very quickly, because it's not breaking up at all. I'm just going to go over here. Right. You can see the house is over there. One, two, three. One, two, three. That's not bad. That's very good in fact. So I'm going to go even further now. This is crazy. One, two. One, two. Hello! Hello! Imagine someone walking past the house now. Walking past the house and saying, what the bloody hell is going on there?

2:38 Where everything

Hello? Right, I'm going to go in because everything's getting wet. Right, I'm inside now and I'll explain where everything was. Right, that's where the speaker was, window is open and that is where the receiver was. So you can see Trantec S4.4 I will try and find a lickable clink, stick it in the description for you. And what I did, I went out of that, you can see there, XLR cable into the input of the mixer. That was it. Now we did go quite a distance. We'll class this as video number one and I will do a few more on it. We've got, I mean the walls are like a couple of foot thick here so that wasn't too bad and I'll try and do a couple more when it's not peeing it down outside. Alright so as ever thank you very much for that and would you like to say something Madagascar? Thank you. Practice and enjoy.
