i use the samson airline 77, and have been extremely happy with it.
playing wireless is *great*.  in my case, i use an audix fireball,
so i got the one with the AX-1 transmitter, about the size of a
disposable ligher, which plugs into an xlr mic output.  the combination
of the mic and transmitter is still smaller and lighter than your basic
vocal mic, and it's all i need with me.  when i'm not playing, it lives
in the small zippered pouch the audix came in, attached to my belt
(along with a small LCD flashlight) with a carabiner.

it also comes with a pretty nice mic, which i don't use, but could
come in handy as a spare vocal mic.

for the honker, with its 1/4 out, you'd need their wireless
setup intended for guitar.  a slightly different part number,
i think it's more or less the same price.
