Personal FM Listening System

PFM PRO

Experience enhanced audio quality with this Personal FM System. The personal listening system can be used in various settings such as classrooms, work environments, or at home. It helps to provide clear audio and overcome challenges with noise or distant sound. This FM system is powered by alkaline batteries.

 

Battery Type

The included transmitter can broadcast on 17 selectable channels on the 72-76 MHz and has an range of up to 150 feet. Listeners using the included receivers can listen by choosing from a variety of different earphones and headphone options. People with hearing aids can connect a neckloop (not included) to their headphone jack. This allows the audio from the transmitter to go directly to their hearing aids with Telecoil technology.

This FM listening system includes a transmitter, receiver, microphone, earphones, and headphones, all neatly packed in a portable carrying case for easy transport.

NOTE: The FCC approves the personal FM systems (FM PFM PRO and PFM PRO RCH) for operation in U.S. markets. You should check your government’s radio rules for 72-76 MHz use, as not all countries may allow this system.

DISCLAIMER: FCC rules limit use of this equipment to auditory assistance.
