Yes Sennheiser can turn the pilot on and off but the Sony model I have it is permanently on.

No it won't - you can't mix brands as they all have different noise reduction systems.

If you are mixing brands in a multi-channel system (ie: transmitter sending to a receiver of the same brand but with systems from other brands in the area) then having pilot on or off won't really make any difference.
