Welcome to the new Tandem® High Performance Video
Receiver. Lentequip's
new solution to a non-compromising companion for your CanaTrans® or
other high-end UHF(NTSC/PAL) / Cable reception requirements. If
you already own a CanaTrans, please call us for special pricing.
Since introducing our CanaTrans®, we have been repeatedly asked
for our recommendations for an equivalent uncompromising receiver. The
only true solution was to design and build one ourselves to the same
exacting high standards already set by the CanaTrans®. The
Tandem® was
designed from the ground up meaning that inside you will not find
cheap receiver modules that are commonly installed into other
company's receivers. By building a receiver from a discreet
proprietary design, Lentequip has been able to provide you with a
level of sensitivity
and performance only matched by rack-mounted units costing as much
as 20 times more!
The simple interface allows the user to easily navigate
through the channels. At a touch of a button you can store or delete
commonly used channels. There is no need for any tools to switch
channels - just read the details right off the large back-lit dot-matrix
screen. Power
cable compatibility is assured if you already own a CanaTrans®.
Thanks to the frequency agile characteristics of the
Tandem, reception is possible just about anywhere in the world
in either
UHF (NTSC/PAL) as well as most cable channel offsets. Microprocessor
based technology allows for future upgrades when necessary.

"...The future for RF transmitting is looking
promising again. (For the product as well as for the Customer Service)."
-E.L.,
Excerpt from steadicamforum.com, November 27, 2005
"...Truly the next stage in transmitters ...One of
many great Steadicam tools that I will now wonder how I lived without."
-A.J., Excerpt from steadicamforum.com, November 27, 2005
"
...I have now been using my CanaTrans for over
three years and I still love it. It has proven to be very reliable,
user friendly,
and it does not create any distortion or feedback on the Steadicam
or any of the other cameras that I have used it with--and the voltage
display is a nice bonus for the steadicam monitor/video battery."

modules like the one above |
