I just bought one and the same thing happened to me..  I set it up on top of my amp and it would drop out for about 1 second at a time.. I tried all the channels with the same result.  Will upgrading to the G50 solve this issue?

ricotm, I am truly sorry you did not have a good experience. I am curious, whether or not you tried contacting customer support?  You may have just had a bad unit or we may have been able to suggest something that would have made it work for you. 

We have literally 10's of thousands of these out there doing work on professional and amateur stages alike. Most people who have dropouts can take some very basic steps and cure the problem (unless you happen to have a bad unit).

1. Make sure there is no other transmitting device (in ears, other wireless transmitters or laptops) within a couple of feet of the receiver.

2. Be sure to use a channel that is not on the same frequency as the WiFi hotspots in the same room or very close by.

3. Don't cover your antennas with anything metalic (including costume pieces).

4. If you are using several witreless transmitters in one spot (i.e. in a pit or choir loft) and other transmitters further away such as church nave or on stage, try to place the antenna for the remote trasnsmitter closer to it, or between the choir loft and stage.

That should pretty much cover it. Again it is always possible you have a deective unit and we could have worked with you to get you up and running.

Thanks for speaking up though.
