•The unit is designed for use in ambient temperature range
of 0°C to 50°C (32°F to 122°F).
•Do not place the unit on or near heat sources, such as
lighting equipment, power amplifiers, or in a place subject
to direct sunlight or excessive moisture. In such places,
the external finish or internal parts of the unit may be
damaged.
•If the unit is used in a very humid or dusty place or in a
place subject to an active or corrosive gas, clean its
surface as well as the connectors with a dry, soft cloth
soon after use.
Lengthy use of the unit in such places or not cleaning it
after its use in such places may shorten its life.
•When cleaning the unit, never use organic solvents such

Precautions
2(US)
Battery alarm for a transmitter
The WRR-861A/861B has capability of receiving “Battery
status information” from a transmitter to make advance
warning of battery depletion.The information is sent in
about one hour advance to battery exhaust so that you can
safely replace the batteries of the transmitter.
Selectable RF squelch
The RF squelch can be easily turned ON or OFF with the
panel switch. The RF squelch level is selectable from 5 dBµ,
10 dBµ and 15 dBµ.
Preprogrammed wireless channel plans for simultaneous
multi channel operation
The WRR-861A/861B has many preprogrammed channel
groups, meaning combination of wireless channels to permit
simultaneous operation of multiple channels without
intermodulation.
See “Wireless Microphone System Frequency List” supplied
with this manual.
Wide Operating Frequency ranges
For details, see “Specifications” on page 17.
Overview
The WRR-861A/861B is a highly reliable diversity tuner for
the Sony UHF wireless microphone system to be used for
broadcast or movie production purposes.
This tuner is suitable for Electronic News Gathering (ENG)
and Electronic Field Production (EFP).
The microphone/transmitter and tuners of the wireless
microphone system are classified by frequency band.
In building a UHF wireless microphone system, be sure to
combine a microphone/transmitter and a tuner having the
same wireless channel (frequency).
Features
Space Diversity Reception
A space diversity system is employed to eliminate signal
dropout and provide stable reception. An SMC9-4S (Sony 4
pin) audio output connector is provided on the top panel.
Two way powering
Approximate eight hours of continuous operation is
provided by using four LR6 (size AA) alkaline batteries.
The WRR-861A/861B can also be operated on the external
power from Sony camcorders via the supplied DC cable.

signal reception stand-by mode. Set to OFF to search
outside noise or a radio wave which may disrupt the
transmission.
Note
If you turn off the SQUELCH switch when the tuner is in
stand-by condition for signal receiving or when the RF input
level is low, noise may be heard or the connected device or
speakers may be damaged. Be sure to operate this switch
only after minimizing the input of the connected device.
1ANT (antenna) a/b connectors
Connect the antennas supplied to both ANT a/b connectors.
Note
Be sure to connect two antennas to these connectors to
make the diversity reception properly.
2OUTPUT (BAL) connector
The OUTPUT connector supplies audio signal output from
the tuner.
Connect this connector to the microphone input connector
of a camcorder, mixer, or tape recorder by using the
supplied cable.
3MONITOR connector

equipped with a 3.5 mm (5/32 inch) dia stereo mini plug.
Use either of stereo or monaural headphones. Adjust the
monitor level with the MONITOR volume.
4RF (radio frequency) indicators
Indicate the strength of the RF input signal and the
receiving antenna for diversity reception of the tuner.
The indication color shows the strength of the RF input
signal. The indicated signal level changes corresponding to
the squelch level setting.
When the squelch level is set to 5 dBµ;
On in green: RF input is more than 15 dBµ.
