Hi Bill, Great document with easy to understand language that I can use to handout to venues that want to know what type of technology to use. Thanks for...
Hi everyone. I have a little problem that I hope someone can help me with. I just completed the looping of my TV room. It is double loop using 18 guage...
Hi Art, TV cable boxes and DVR's generally have a volume control that directly affects the TV volume. However, the TV simply passes the audio on through to the...
The loop amplifier we have in our living room has a potentiometer on the bottom that can be adjusted to raise or lower the volume. The pot requires a small...
Thanks for the prompt feedbacks.... Lou, the Line Out is a 'fixed' volume output. When attempting to adjust the volume using the TV controls, the TV gives a...
It seems to me that you are attacking this at the wrong point. The Univox amplifier has an Automatic Gain Control AGC fitted. This means that turning down the...
Art, You may try addressing the problem by changing the antennae. If you are using a two turn 18 gauge wire, try eliminating one turn. If that is still...
If you are 18-65 and late deafend (hearing loss or majority of loss at age 12 or later) My name is Jill Meyer and I am a doctoral student at the University of...
Thanks for the additional information. I got the double loop idea from an article I read on looping. As suggested, I changed the config to a single loop and...
Art, before changing your telecoil to accommodate your loop, have you made sure you can hear well with telephones and neck loops? It may be that the loop...
Hello everyone ! I've just newly joined this listserver -- am a member of the HoH community (now on my 3rd set of hearing aids), and have a lifelong background...
There is a simple way to restore the remote controlled volume and mute functionality for yourloop syatem, Art, albeit with one downside. Replace the line-out...
It is surprising that it is still too loud. The Univox is designed for this sort of application so the volume control on the unit (which adjusts the loop...
Unlikely that it may be that you're near Albuquerque, New Mexico, if you are, I have a field strength meter and will be happy to measure your loop field...
Art, Hi from the UK! The apparently too strong field might be caused by the position of the loop wire in relation to your hearing-aid when you are watching ...
David, I installed a loop in a home a few days ago and too, ended up with a higher than acceptable signal when the Univox DLS-50 was connected. The home owner...
Doug, in the similar situation I just posted, the loop wire was installed about 7 - 8' (2+ meter) above the floor and routed along the ceiling over the...
With respect to measuring field strength---the newer Apple iPhones and other smart phones (like those using the Android OS) have some ability to do that. (On...
Hello Dana ! So far the Senior Center, the MeadowLark Senior Center, located in, owned and operated by the City of Rio Rancho, NM hasn't yet gotten their ...
... Many of us on this list are consumer advocates rather than technical gurus and *don't* know such things, so please continue to share observations like ...
Many, many thanks, Dana ! I'll do my best to be a humble resource for anyone on this list for whom I may be able to be of any assistance. I've "designed" and...
(I'm changing the subject line since we've veered from the original one.) Mike, I really appreciate your technical input! I just checked my own laptop power...
A loop that is too loud? What a blessing. We usually hear complaints that a loop is too weak. To control the loop loudness you need to control the signal going...
Wow, lots of feedback, ideas and information. EMI.....chipping.....attenuator.....potentiometer....gee, I had no idea that getting a loop system in place...
Hello again ! The "Hearing Aid Compatibility" rating is a really confusing animal. It had me going for about a week! You are correct that it doesn't mean your...
Art, I took Ron Vickery's suggestion and just ordered a pair of Harrison Labs 12 dB Line Level Attenuators. They come in 3 dB, 6 dB and 12 dB sizes. One...
Lou, awesome information. Please keep me/us posted on how this works for you, especially if it you find a way to reduce the signal strength. To reduce the...
