One of my clients has asked my opinion on this- they need a hand help cheap-ish radio mic for conferences. Nothing fancy, they have stipulated and with a budget of around £100, but they could go a bit more if it is a better mic. I only use PG and SM58s, so any other suggestions would be good.

I thought the Trantec s4.4 was in this price range, but apparently not.

Peter, have you heard and used both of these systems?

I recommend the Freeports. Good solid mics for the price. If they can survive in a school then they must be strong!

JTS RANGE--3 years down the line---still perfect for me--I need something reliable, sturdy and decent quality in my line of work.;)

Freeport or if thats a little too much Citronic do some about £100 that come in a "flight case" (metal case) - I have one and its not bad for the cash.

No. I have heard a freeport in use, and I have heard and used a similar JTS, and I know of many folk who would recommend either of these rigs.
The freeport was on the same frequency as my SM58, so I opened my mic channel with my Shure switched off, and reinforced the in-house PA. :D :D :D :D :D
