Can the tansmitter be connected to the PC terminal on the camera or does it have to be on the hot shoe?
I'm thinking about combining my speedlites with studio lights for more power and choice of modifiers.

You'll need a male PC terminal on the end that's going to connect to the camera but I have no idea what the end for the RF unit is going to require. You'll need to check the manual or take a look at the transmitter unit itself to see what it needs. ...Leo
