Q: I am making a replacement cable for my Line 6 wireless unit -  How should I wire the cable?

A: Here is the wiring from the  1/8" TRS jack to the 1/4" mono plug: Tip and Sleeve from the 1/8" jack  go to the 1/4" Sleeve (ground), the Ring on the 1/8" TRS jack goes to  the Tip (Hot) of the 1/4" jack.

 

Q: Is there  any way to make an external antenna for the XDS95 or is it even  necessary?

A: The antennae are built into the chassis of the  XDS95 and perform quite well. Therefore there is no need for external  antennae.

 

Q: The belt clip seems to easily fall off  my strap with the slightest jumping around. How can I avoid this?

A:  Thin straps are typically the culprit. Weaving your guitar strap  through the clip will help to ensure a secure fit.

 

Q:  I would like to buy multiple transmitters. Where can I find them?

A:  Please see a list of our dealers on our authorized dealers page. Any of our dealers can order additional available accessories if  they are out of stock.

 

Q: Do you offer replacement  and or extra cables? Do you also offer an angled plugged cable?

A: See the following link for the replacement cable on the Line 6 webstore:
