Expedition Accessories
As shown in the illustration on the left, the top panel of the Expedition EX20 and
EX30 provides a prewired compartment that accommodates any of three
different Samson wireless receivers: the UM1 or M32 UHF models or the VM1
VHF model. Output signal from a wireless receiver mounted in an EX30 arrives
at channel 2 of the onboard mixer.
In addition, a number of accessories are available from your local Samson
dealer that allow you to expand the capabilities of your Expedition system.
