I just looked, thanks.

$500/channel I guess is not tooooooo bad,

if it works reliably - but I think I will

try the $100 Sony in this area first, and

if that does not work, I will use my three

$119 mini-Disk recorders instead of wireless

systems, with my three Azden systems in reserve

for when wireless is really necessary...
