These are not that great. So much depends on interference from everything.

Do you live in the LA are?

I have one that you could borrow to see if it meets your needs.

I use 2 BFD's and a Modulous 300.

This video sender is an emergency backup. Pretty much all it is good for. I have not tested it in the dessert though??

If you get one, make sure that it has a choice of at least 4 channels. Some have a choice but a mini screwdriver is needed to change a small pot inside the unit near fragile wiring.

Luckily I have never had to rely on it.

 

There is nothing worse than a video signal that goes in and out during the shot. The Director and DP hate not having a clean image.

You may want to record with an onboard video camera (under $300. for mini dv) in order to ALWAYS have a clean image to show after the shot if the video signal goes out. It is great for long shots, elevators, multi floor shots where a signal on the Modulous can break up.
