If all the GPS satellites fall out of the sky or get jammed by China we are screwed!!!

Another thing the transmitter owner has for them is that in some jurisdictions if the tower has been there undisputed for a certain amount of time (multiple decades) it is said to be protected by an unwritten easement of some kind..not sure of the legal terms for it..it's similar to certain squattin...

I don't think there are much FCC rules on contracts like that..best bet is to contact a local lawyer familiar with the local property type laws...alot of communication/broadcast type sites are covered under a perpetual easement (especially if it's an older site). The county would have that type of r...

one of the smaller cable companies in my area used to have just a channel with a live radar website up ...i don't recall which website it was but that's all it ran 24/7. It was clearly just a scan converter and a computer..because occasionally the blue screen of death would pop up until someone rest...

At an AM site I used to take care of, the farmer next door was allowed to let his cattle graze on the tower property. He installed a "cattle gate" (a grate made of steel tubing) in the driveway underneath the vehicle gate. He assured me that the cattle would not walk across the grate because they d...

awesome thanks!

Im sure you guys at NBC stations know about the blackbox voice alerts that come down on their newschannels via satellite...My question is does ABC have something similar? Trying to keep the newsroom informed of ABC live feeds properly

To find out what C-band freq you are looking at, subtract the indicated freq on the specan from the LO of the LNB (5150mhz). And hope the LNB is using a standard L.O. of 5150 and not one of those odd-balls. While 5150 is normal, I have seen some unusual ones on older dishes. 70 MHZ I.F modems and L...

funny story...I was part of an exercise in northern michigan. A radar site was set up next to a busy highway. When the radar was active...cars that were on the highway when the radar rotated towards the road were shutting down, car alarms would go off, power windows would turn on and off,etc....they...

I talked to their tech support...it will not do AES, which is fine but it would of saved a little time if it did!

Will this audio SSR work with AES? Im not seeing anything on RDL's website or in the manual that says it won't, but im not seeing anything that says it will either.

all good info, i wasnt looking for anything in particular. Just when you type X-Y protocol into google you don't get much. Not a big fan of Imagine hardware, it's always something with them.

So basically its a Leitch/Harris/Imagine proprietary protocol????

Can someone describe X-Y protocol? I really have no idea about anything on it. Sorry this is so vague. Thanks

I have heard rumors of a repack of C-band spectrum? Anyone have any thoughts?
