The Senn “A” block covers 516Mhz to 558Mhz and the “B” block covers 626Mhz to 668Mhz. There is also the “G” block that covers 566Mhz to 608Mhz. Depending where you are and what RF is in the air any of those blocks will work….or not.

When/if Congress stops trying to hold the country hostage, the below web site can be used to punch in your Austin Zip Code for a report of what frequencies are best.

October 10, 2013 at 7:39 pmI’m using two of these units right now (one A frequency and one B) and have yet to have an issue I couldn’t fix with a simple frequency adjustment. For the price, I’m not sure you can do better.
Good luck!
