Using wireless guitar bugs for vocal monitoring

Totally random question - I’m doing a musical and the band can’t hear the cast vocals.
 

The venue doesn’t appear to have any wired in throughputs from the tech booth to backstage and it’s too far for cables (and for a few nights). 

The digital desk has a load of unused aux outs and I presume we could get a feed of vocals out if needed. 

 

One idea was to use a wireless IEM system to get the aux out to a monitor backstage at v low volume, but we have no budget and I don’t have a system. 
 

I was wondering whether I could use my wireless bass system to send the signal instead. Is there any reason not to use it (range notwithstanding)? I mean frequency wise etc. 

 

Assume I have all the right cables to convert jacks to XLRs etc.

I've used a Lekato wireless bug system for iems and it was absolutely fine.

Bit of jiggery-pokery to connect it up but no reason at all not to use it


Thanks Stew - fingers crossed!
