In March, 2012, Rob Meadows called us to help get his new station going.
The transmitter is located between Dickinson and Richardton, at a site that is
shared with a number of other users.
The heavy fog made it difficult to see the antenna on the tower,
a six-bay OMB SGP array.
The transmitter was a 1986 Harris FM-10, refurbished by
Calhoun Communications
and purchased from
Transcom.
The rack to the right holds a Premiere Networks XDS satellite receiver, Sage Digital Endec EAS unit, Netgear Ethernet switch, Digital Universe playout system, Orban Optimod 8100, and Continental 802B FM exciter.
The Harris transmitter was very clean inside, but having spent most of its
life in Pennsylvania, all the silver plated parts were badly tarnished.
Rob Meadows secures the meter panel to the front of the transmitter,
