[SBE] NWL Power Supply

[Ron Brown]

Dose any one have an NWL Model #37696 Power Supply for an 40KW IOT transmitter that they need to sell or donate (if the person will come and get it)?

Vinny,

This just happens to be a long time supporter of our public television
station so being one of our underwriters they were glad to partner with
us. They actually went to bat for us at the corporate level to be able
to participate.

I suppose in the commercial arena you would just have to have the right
relationship with the vendor who understands this is educating the
communities they serve and once they have buy in then it seems to work
itself out-

Good Luck!

I'm curious how you got the vendor to agree. Every time in the past we
approached the 2 big players in the area (not mentioning any names, but
some would say that they are the Best in the City) we got stonewalled
that any promotion of that type would have to come out of their
corporate offices, and since they sold sat equipment and cable packages
they really didn't see a reason to get involved in the project.
