Hell, I remember when those 40 MHz VHF-LO radio mikes worked great! I
could not imagine using one of those in the RF horror of any metropolitan
area today.

I keep thinking I'll have to upgrade my old Shure radio mic, then it
keeps working near to perfectly 99% of the time. I'm gigging in the
London UK area, which is about as metropolitan as it gets :-)

The only place it has real problems is on Thames pleasureboat gigs.
Some combination of dirty generated AC power, ship radio frequencies
and/or constantly changing location often get the better of it.
