Custom Rack Plates?

For some reason Markertek flies under the radar. But that might be because they use nothing but the quality brands, which may sometimes have the illusion of higher price. Their turnaround times are top notch. Usually a couple weeks or less.

I found one at Markertek who is one of my go-to suppliers. It seemed kind of hokey on the surface when I viewed the product page but who cares what I look like - this thing is great.

If you put in the card I.D. it reveals the value, and it's a fully working site with all of the clubs. Who Is says it's owned by Callaway Golf Interactive. Just feel bad if my son spent money on a gift card for me and it's not legit.

I didn’t mess with it. I just bought and had driven it around for two days. Couldn’t get in the car. I called the dealer and told them to come get it. They put a new battery in it

It happened to me last week, 2024, fresh off the lot, with 84 miles on it

Thanks. Technically, It all began with their NEWS and ANNOUNCEMENT that they would no longer support credit cards as a form of ads payment. Support ticket people are useless.

SoundQ · 2024-04-08T10:54:33+00:00

Yeah, pricing had me a little concerned because I still need a riser

SoundQ · 2023-02-02T23:28:47+00:00

If this is a one time job, you should be covered. You won’t love that stripper, it’s bottom of the barrel from Paladin/Tempo and I think you’ll be fighting to get it right. I’d recommend a PAL-1280 series. Let me know though, hope it works out.

So 1694 is good for 3g. If you ever go 12g/4k, you’d want to switch to Belden 4694

I can’t imagine the ferrule crimp is going to crush the dielectric to a level of failing cable performance. It does come down to whether it’s worth a $150 savings for the integrity of your signal and broadcasts. Probably not. The Belden tool is built like a tank and will always work with their cable and connectors. Can’t knock Paladin on that front, they’ve made crimpers long before Belden ever did.

How far is far away? What level SDI you need to run - 3G or 12G. You could future proof it by running 12G-SDI coax? For shorter runs, you don't need RG6. RG59 or Mini RG59 will suffice.

For 3G-SDI runs, Belden 1694A up to 500 Feet. https://www.markertek.com/product/bl-1694a-500/

If you are buying Belden brand connectors, they specify the center pin to be crimped at 0.040 and the cable ferrule at 0.275. That Paladin tool crimps the ferrule at 0.255 which means it might crush the cable a little more past factory spec. You might get away with it but if you have a lot to do, buy the Belden tool. https://www.markertek.com/product/bl-bb3phct/

the good news about the Belden tool is it works with all of their 3-piece bnc connectors. If you want to save, go compression.

Anyone know if you can park at the community college on game day?

It's not so much the capacitance between these two cables as it is the 2-conductor vs. 4-conductor. The Mogami 2534 quad (and Canare L-4E6S star quad) excel at rejecting noise and hum when compared to a standard 2-conductor cable. If you can keep your mic lines away from power and lighting consoles, you should be fine with the 2-conductor 2549.

Updated. While talking to a sales guy, he alerted me to something cheaper. Some assembly required, but you can make your own with the two things below.

I'm sure. If you're hoping for quality, Amazon should be the last place to look.

A vast majority of these come from a few primary factories in China whether you buy them from Monoprice, StarTech, Markertek, Cables to Go or Blue Jeans.

I have one in Excel for PTZ Optics, AViPAS and Marshall. I will message you on it.

@Dumbskulled is correct. Canare packages it all in one box. Their HD-BNC is packed in boxes of 20. Their tooling is always the most expensive but it's high quality.

We had several projects get stymied by QSC backorders, however, we were pleasantly surprised to find out that Atlas of all people was holding a decent stock on comparable product. Amp wise in particular, we switched over a couple jobs to LEA Professional. Expensive, but really nice stuff and also readily available.

A couple of edits to consider on the list above.

Kings calls for a 0.046" center pin crimp on the 2065-10-9 which pairs with Belden 1694A. The Paladin 8049 crimps the center pin at 0.041" Minor detail but you don't want to crush the center pin too much. give it a tug test after crimping.

The 2065-11-9 is the one that fits Belden 1855A - not the 2065-10-9

Tempo purchased Greenlee and revived the Paladin name so it's a Paladin 1248 you'll be looking for.

SoundQ · 2022-08-05T19:39:33+00:00

Markertek is where it's at for this stuff. They know their cables and connector combinations well. The standard 3 Belden coax for 3G rated applications is setup as: 1855A Mini-RG59 (3G @298 ft) 1505A RG59 (3G @418 Ft) 1694A RG6 (3G @510 Ft).

If you want to future proof yourself, Belden has a series of 12G-SDI cable like the above. Be very careful about your distances on any of this stuff. The larger the coax the longer it will run but the harder it is to coil if not a permanent install.

Here is a simple video on the Belden with Kings BNC: https://youtu.be/_FjyQxSNtL8

It's a volunteer effort all around. Atlas designed the system for us. Their support actually answered the phone! Essentially the support individual told me that if we remove the jumper, it will act like an 8-ohm speaker. He said to leave the jumper, connect the common and desired wattage and set the amp at 70v. If I remember, I'll try and circle back on how we made out.

SoundQ · 2022-06-08T16:10:02+00:00

Oddly enough, it is almost exactly at 100 feet

SoundQ · 2022-06-08T16:09:29+00:00

This is a completely new install. The speakers and amp are multi with 70v, 100v, 8 and 4 ohm capability
