The elevator isn’t too bad. It’s the way the tower sways at the top that’s a little disconcerting.

At HCJB a shortwave station in Ecuador had a swimming pool to cool their 1 MW transmitter.

This brings back memories. I worked as an engineering tech for a company who rolled out an IOT transmitter in the late 90s. I learned how to sweat copper plumbing up the 2" lines for the cooling system. I got to go out to Utah to do an installation outside of Ogden. Very cool.

I’ve always thought ERP is a combination of transmitter power x antenna gain in the desired radiated direction. Not based on a transmitter produced wattage number that requires cooling?
@nakayle 8 ай бұрын
Basically true, but you must also figure in coax loss between the transmitter and antenna which can be considerable at UHF frequencies.

Hey! I saw you made a comment saying you were considering selling your collection. If that is something under you are still considering, I am very interested

would be more cost effective to use the Same IOT for all the stations. Combine them at low power (200 Watts) before the IOT Tube. Just put the stations near each other like UHF 16, 18 and 20.

It’s on a thousand for stick. I road up a two thousand footer to the 1800 foot point where we hung our FM antenna. It was a pretty calm day and you could still feel the tower swaying in the breeze. I stayed on the work platform and felt pretty safe. Climbing on the outside, attaching gin poles and such is for the crazy folks who don’t get paid nearly enough.

It’s a baby uhf transmitter, super quite compared to a klystron based transmitter

Copper pipes and boxes are waveguides to carry the signal That is a huge amount of RF Radiation and you would not ever want to be near that if it was opened
@pstonard Жыл бұрын
Not quite. Those copper pipes are hardline coax. Internally there is a center conductor. Waveguide is open on the inside, and scaled for the frequency in use. For VHF TV channels Waveguide would be very large rectangles (WSAZ is on ch.3 60 - 66MHz) and would require WR-1500 0.49-0.74GHz 15.000ins x 7.5000ins

Even in the winter when it was -20 F with the doors open, we had a temperature of 140 degrees and the transmitter shut down because we lost our A/C units

Lol don't pass up Kirby's star stacker game boy at that store. If you never played it I highly recommend it. A team of experts took the Super Nintendo one called Kirby's Super Star Stacker and English patched it and now it's available for the USA. It's great! I got like the first copy of it I believe. It's very fun and was the last Kirby game released on Snes. :)

I gotta say seeing all of them heavy game systems put on top of them complete games in the cardboard was a really bad idea, I wonder if he did it or you did it. You want to out the heavy things on the bottom of the box and the delicates on the top of course. Especially if you want to resell them or collect them. You hated a label messed up after all so I'm not sure why you allowed that lol.

Very interesting watch! I live way off in the fringe and love regularly watching WSAZ/WQCW, but here lately haven't been getting any signal. Hope everybody stays safe while working on that stuff, must be really daunting.

Yes while the backup transmitter & Antenna are operating, they do so under much less power and lower down on the side of the tower, so sadly a lot of OTA viewers down in Valleys, further away or on the backside of the antenna where the tower blocks the signal are without us! They are getting closer and closer to fixing the issue as they have found the final section that got burnt up at the Tippy top of the Antenna!
@landocommandorants3423 3 жыл бұрын
@@nintariplays5654 Ouch why did it have to be the top... In that case I have all the patience in the world. I'd love the signal to be fixed but it is not worth possibly losing human life over.
