RF Frequency Coordination

Plan clean wireless frequencies.

Add your mics and in-ears, pick where the show is, and the calculator finds frequencies that stay clear of local TV, restricted bands, scan peaks and each other's intermods. Lock what's already set, check power and range, then download a PDF report, an Excel workbook or a frequency list.

1Show
2Location and TV TV transmitters that reach the venue

Main transmitters only. Local repeaters differ suburb to suburb, so check the ACMA Channel Finder for the venue and scan on site. Click a TV channel in the TV card to mark it in use or clear.

3Rules and exclusions
Exclusions

Block a range you know is busy: the venue's house system, a broadcaster's frequencies, a neighbouring stage. For one frequency, use the same value in both boxes and it blocks ±100 kHz.

4Scan data

CSV or text exports from Shure Wireless Workbench, AD600, Sennheiser WSM, RF Explorer, TinySA and most analysers: one frequency and level per line. Hz, kHz or MHz and dBm or dBµV are worked out for you. Import several and they're combined (max hold).

5Coordination Intermods to avoid In-ear transmit antenna
Advanced spacing (kHz)

Guards are per receiver type: the guard used is the one for the channel an intermod would land on. The profile scales every value.

Wireless channels

Add equipment, then calculate. Locked channels never move, so lock anything already set on stage or belonging to someone else.

No channels yet. Pick some equipment above and press Add, or load the example show.

Intermods

Intermod check

The closest intermod product to every channel, and which carriers make it. Anything inside the guard is flagged.

TV channels

Local TV and free channels

Australian 7 MHz TV channels. Click a channel to cycle: automatic from the transmitters you picked, forced in use, forced clear.

Wireless calculation

Power, EIRP and range

A link budget for one transmitter and receive antenna system. Use it to choose RF power, antennas and cable, and to check you stay inside the 100 mW EIRP class licence limit.

Coordination report

A4 PDF: frequency list for the crew, spectrum views, TV channels, intermod check, power and range, and the settings used.

Spreadsheets and lists

Excel workbook with every sheet, a frequency list CSV to import into your coordination software or console, and an exclusion list CSV (TV, restricted and scan peaks).

Project file

Save the whole plan, scan included, to reopen later or send to another tech. The plan also saves in this browser automatically.

A planning aid only. Spacing and intermod guards are starting points, TV data covers main transmitters, and equipment bands and power settings are typical values. Always confirm against the ACMA Channel Finder, the manufacturer's data and a scan at the venue, and walk-test every channel before the show.
