TWiRT 67 - Mark Persons

One engineer who's seen it all and done it all - and has written about a lot of it - is Mark Persons.  Mark's experiences and solid technical advice have helped many others to solve tech problems and prevent others. Mark introduces us to himself and describes a complex AM transmitter move.  He'll be back with more stories in future TWiRT episodes.

TWiRT 65 - CES and Gary Kline

Gary Kline, VP of Engineering and IT at Cumulus Media, is just back from CES.  Did you know that CES is more than iPads and 3D TV?  Gary found a wealth of technology for broadcasters; things that we engineers and listeners can look forward to.

TWIRT 64 - LPFM and CALM

The US Congress passed new LPFM legislation, directing the FCC to change the rules, allowing more Low Power FM stations on the air.  What does this mean for LPFM?  For full-power broadcasters?  And what engineering advice does our panel of engineers have for LPFM stations?  Plus, can you regulate TV volume? Congress thinks they can.
