In 1999, i needed to do something similar, where the goal was to install a propane line from the tank back to the building. Similar finding methods failed so we attempted to guesstimate by sighting back to the tower. It kinda worked. What we missed was simple but a little complicated to explain. The...

After I read the recent Radio World article on tower rules, something in that may apply here in that an FCC licensee will be responsible for conduct outside the usual FCC jurisdiction. Such as, where a licensee owns a tower on which it has no licensed facilities but doesn’t paint it when needed, the...

I find the words, “transmitted or otherwise sent” intriguing. The first question is, “How else do you send besides transmitting?” The second question is, “Could ‘otherwise sent’ mean by way of an internet stream?” Question #3: Can the FCC regulate that? I wanted to ask these questions this week at a...

If they are even still around, run fast in the other direction from Fujitsu mini-split units. The tech support is overseas (read: language barrier) and our HVAC co. eventually gave up and installed, on them, a typical traditional system instead. This was a studio, not a transmitter, install. They pu...

The Reading (Pa.) Eagle newspaper declared bankruptcy (Ch. 11) March 20. The paper owns and operates WEEU/830. A story that came out in May suggested the station may go dark. The lone bidder for the paper will acquire the radio station assets but doesn’t want the license. An effort is being made to ...

Think I saw this elsewhere: G-suite and Gmail won’t work with the Sage units. Or Broadcast Tools but that’s another thread. Regarding the paper logs, that’s what I’ve always done. Pretty much in the same way. Even then, that's an email note also attached to the Station Log. Now I had not thought of ...

For some reason the engineers never fade that down during ID or commercial breaks.

Old timey thing. The idea was to give the impression you never left the stadium. Also not playing the local spots down the network is unusual anymore.

thebdr.net has a write up.

I switched to another affiliate station at 1:55 for an hour and didn't hear a single dropout. They missed the top-of-the-hour station ID though and their audio signal was delayed maybe 1/2 second from WFAN's, which is pretty quick for a satellite delay, making me think perhaps they're picking up th...

66 minutes? How appropriate.

Look here: arcticpalm.com. Works with Arrakis.

Am I the only one that calls AJA "ah-ja"? Every product video they always just call it A-J-A but I like the first way better lol See post above. The name actually comes from the first initials of the owner’s sons. So I read somewhere. So it is properly A J A, but he has been asked about it, too. So...
