TWiRT 599 - Ask an Expert with Tom Ray
Friday, June 24, 2022 at 11:38AM
One of TWiRT’s original co-hosts, Tom Ray carved out an hour to join us on this episode. As a broadcast engineering consultant, Tom truly sees the good, the bad, and the ugly at broadcast facilities. And, he’s usually hired to correct the problems he finds. From HD Radio, to EAS systems, to AM towers to FM transmission lines, Tom really does get hands-on with most every technology applicable to radio stations. We invited viewers of our live video stream to post their questions for Tom to answer. Plus Kirk Harnack supplied a few questions for Tom that engineers and station owners have been asking lately.
Show Notes:
Monitoring LED tower lights with their much lower current than incandescent lamps led to this sensor & alarm from SSAC. Look to pages 26 & 26 of this PDF document for the data sheet.
