Why is the receiver only 8 channels for the 9 channel transmitter?

As far as I can tell, it was probably designed for programming and channel mixing. For example, ailerons can often be controlled with a single channel on the transmitter and a single channel on the receiver (and a Y splitter for the servos). However, some people like to use two channels on the transmitter and receiver to control the ailerons. This allows you to adjust subtrims and servo movement independently. Some people want to take this a step further and have a knob or switch on the transmitter modify the output of the two aileron channels to create flaperons. In this example, you are still only using two channels on the receiver for the ailerons, but you are using 2 channels on the transmitter for the ailerons and a third channel on the transmitter to monitor the value of the knob/switch used to modify the aileron output. BTW, if you don't know, flaperons are when you make both ailerons lower themselves (like flaps) to provide extra lift, while still allowing them to move independently like normal ailerons.

You can have as many intercoms on a single channel and they will share that channel but if you want each one to be individually addressable, they need to be assigned to one of the nine channels. I ended up keeping three on channel-1 and one on channel-2. That's just what worked best for me. The ringer on these things can be dialed from a whisper to "wake the dead".

I'm not really sure on this...but there are "DIP" switches for channels...this might be able to hook up if all the receivers are set to the same channel. You should probably contact Sunnybell, the mfgr. to get a positive answer.

It mostly stays on the same channel. At times, if I'm trying to change to channel 209 for example, it would only ready one of the numbers and change to channel 2 or 9 instead. After multiple times trying, it usually works. But there are times where the effort is not really worth it.

I have two and there are a 16 channels. My radios work together on all channels. I would imagine they are all manufactured with the same 16 frequencies.

The transmitter is part of the package. You can purchase additional receivers.

It only works on one channel at a time. So it would not work for 2 inputs at once.

There are also eight channels through the ADAT optical inputs and two through the SPDIF input. I use an eight channel mic preamp through ADAT. It works well.

I only have channels 3 and 6 on the low end 2 thru 9. (get 3 diff channels on 3 out of psu. Only 11 channels total avail here in rural central Pa. I will try to get more in the spring by rotating it.

I think there are only two channels, and I can't remember how close they are to know if there would be feedback. If any two get very close together there is quite strong feedback. 4 devices would be cool, just not sure if these can do it. ??

The receiver is perfectly capable of using only 4 speakers. Thr results depend a lot of room placement and speaker imaging for getting away without a center channel. I ran the setup and it recognized on the firdt sound sweep with the microphone that there was no center and automatically adjusted accordingly.

Friend, I think you want to run two vehicles by one Transmitter. In that case, you have to use a second receiver, but you can't run both of them at the same time.

Once you used the bi-amp feature, the total available channels will be 2 less. Yes, it will be limited to 7.1 only.

This receiver can work with just five channels but be warned, it turns itself off regularly if you drive more than a few channels hard. It is not a workhorse. All the technology in this receiver is amazing, their amplifier circuitry is substandard under any significant load. I would stay away.

I have three receivers connected and all working fine. Try switching around connection to different outputs to see if the Lnb is the problem or the receiver

My understanding is that when you go to like, digital channel 10-2 versus analog channel 10, it's a different frequency and data rate than analog channels, and it may take the receiver a few seconds to lock in on it (even if it's programmed in).

Each receiver and transmitter has about 5 or 6 different frequencies it can communicate across (using the word channels is confusing since that is the data its transmitting). For example, you can set the transmitter to red (it uses colors to distinguish between frequencies) and only the red receiver will recieve the data it send, and if you set a reciever to green, it will not receive that data unless it is coming from a green transmitter. I hope that makes sense, i wasnt entirely certain of your question.
