AT-216Kit Digitally Synthesized FM Auditory Assistance Kit

Now there's a new generation of COMTEK FM systems ready to bring better clarity to the hard-of-hearing student in today's modern classroom

Here's How It Works:

The AT-216 system functions as a remote microphone for the user, overcoming the greatest greatest listening problems for the hard-of-hearing individual.  The AT-216 really shines where there are high levels of background noise, reverberation effects, and distance between the speaker and the listener.  In addition to hearing instruments, the user wears the PR-216 personal receiver and some method of coupling the sound to their ear or personal hearing instrument.  Generally a coupling device would be one of the following items:  neckloop, silhouette induction coil (monaural or bilateral), direct audio input (DAI) cables (monaural or bilateral), earphone assembly (monaural or bilateral), or headphones.  The speaker wears the M-216 transmitter with a microphone that collects the sound close to the speaker's lips, before acoustical noise can combine with the speaker's voice.  This two-part system provides a direct link between the speaker and the listener reducing the problems caused by room noise, distance and soft voices while improving listening, clarity, and better understanding.

ComTek Advantages:

The AT-216 system not only works on the standard channels (1-40) in the 216 MHz band, maintaining compatibility with other brands, but only COMTEK's  AT-216 works with the high dynamic range companded channels (41-60) for high fidelity sound reproduction rendering greater speech intelligibility.

  • The AT-216Kit system has unique power conservation circuitry which allows a nine-volt battery to be used with greater efficiency.  Plus it makes possible the highest audio output level ensuring the effective and efficient use of the "T" coil with a neckloop.
  • The M-216 transmitter now includes a versatile auxiliary audio input.  Transmitting audio programs from tape, CD players, TV, VCR's, Multi-media (computer), or from any audio device that has an auxiliary or line level output jack is now easier than ever.  Muting the microphone does not mute the auxiliary input channel.  
  • Easy channel switches that are covered by the snap-on clip to prevent accidental channel changes.
