Just submit it as a Word document in .XML format. Then, if they complain, tell them they don't have the latest version of the software and let their IT guys go nuts for a change.

I seem to recall it was a spot for a Cannon color copier that had bars and tone. That used to get my attention even though I was at the transmitter and couldn't do a thing about it.

According to what I read, it uses two sound cards. One is used to convert local analog audio to a digital format. This can be eliminated by using an internal audio source such as a media player as the signal source. This is converted to a 192 KHz digital data stream which is software converted by th...

Hi Chuck:

To quote Artie Johnson, "Verrry Interesting!"

I will look into this.

Thanks,

Re Bessel nulls: This is something I wrote a paper on when I still worked for CBS. I am quite familiar with the technique; I used it to calibrate the TFT-723 Main / Mono modulation monitor now in service at the station. Dale was kind enough to send me the NAB instructions for an FM stereo proof, and...

For Bob M.: That's how I determined the meter linearity. Weston lab standard 0-1 mA mirrored scale milliammeter in series with a 22K resistor and my low voltage bench power supply. 400 uA full scale (spec for the Belar meters according to what is printed on their scale cards) is roughly 10 volts fro...

Not to worry.... I don't have the bucks to replace the meters. Based on earlier comments by Bill and Dale I think the meters are supposed to sit on zero with no power applied. So, I removed the front panel and the meters, adjusted the second hair spring position and got the meters to zero nicely. I ...

I recently acquired a Belar FMS-2 stereo modulation monitor. Looks like a nice clean unit, although it is an early version (slide switch to select AC line voltage). My question is this: Both meters are pinned off-scale low with no power applied to the unit. I know that sometimes meters are deliberat...

RodeoJack's comments have a lot of validity, it seems to me. However, since I am taking care of a low power FM station, the issue does not arise. All of our audio processing is done in the station automation computer. From there, an analog audio output (Left and Right) goes to the EAS decoder, then ...

Moderator: I'm not sure if this belongs here or in the FCC board; if inappropriate, please move.

Well.... we made it. A successful national EAS test performance by KWPB-LP. (First time.)

How did it go for the rest of y'all?

Regards,

Sorry Dale.

I misread the post. I interpreted LPB to mean Low Power (insert FM) Broadcast transmitters... and I had worked on one of those recently.

Please disregard all after "I hate radio..."

Regards,

The last time I went through this rigamarole (different device), I couldn't get the new FET to stop flying if the load had even a smidgeon of +j. I ended up replacing the whole assembly with a pallet from Broadcast Concepts. Installed easily and ran just fine out of the box... end of problem. Many t...

I used to use a tubing cutter for 3 1/8 on TV channel 2 (54-60 MHz). I also used a deburring tool to take the inward sharp edge off. I never had any difficulties at that frequency. As I recall, we ran about 15 KW peak sync. I can't remember whether or not I ever cut any hard line for the FM station ...

Well, I went down to the station (KWPB-LP) today with my GPS. Did a few quick chores like check the carrier frequency and confirm that the TFT 723 mod monitor is still working (don't know whether to be surprised or pleased... maybe both). I put the GPS on the window sill which is only about 3 feet N...

Thanks, Necrat. I have "reported" the ad as you requested, together with an explanation as to the reason for requesting removal. You should see it shortly.

Thanks to all who responded,
