Wireless system cuts out once at most gigs.

Guys
Ive been using a AKG W400 system for the past few months but at most gigs its been cutting out, just the once. I got it exchanged and the newer one does it as well. At first i would panic and just switch to a lead but recently i discovered it come back on itself after about 2-3 sec. And i guess its just a coincidence but tis always the second set.
Now, on this unit there are a few indicators to show if anything is not right like low RF, battery etc and none of these are coming on.
I do get low RF showing sometimes but generally not for long and not around the time it cuts out.
The only thing i can put it down to is that im only about 3-8 foot from the receiver at most gigs, most of the time.

all leads/bass's have been changed to eliminate them.

thanks for any advice etc.

Are the gigs at the same venue? Or has this happened at other venues?

Well since you said you exchanged it, I'm thinking there's some sort of inteference in your area or maybe that particular model has an inherant defect. Try another model or brand.

This has happened all over the country. I dont think its interfearence. It could be a problem with the design i guess.
Its not easy to just try something else without buying it but i do have a AKG GB system that i have no trouble iwth at all. Same venues etc.
I guess going back ot wires might be the answer.
