[SBE] A New Mexico Ham Is Looking For No-Longer-Wanted NTSC TVEquipment For An Amateur TV Club Station --

[wgbw at lsol.net]

Hello from Wisconsin.

I just purchased a tower site, on Friday of this past week.
It was a relay site for ABC,NBC,CBS,PBS,FOX between Milwaukee
and Green Bay.  Equipment is mostly 5.8-6 Ghz and all works
on 48 Vdc.  11 racks worth!  Analog and digital, no HD.

Not just New Mexico Hams, but anyone in the industry that has
an interest in this vintage 2001 to 2003 equipment, transmitters
and receivers made in Canada, should contact me immediately!

Hello everyone 
!
 
A local ham operator is trying 
to build an Amateur TV Club Station.  He's looking for cast-off NTSC 
equipment that might be available inexpensively --  (all right, 
cheaply!)
 
If anyone has any "leads" for 
him, could you either get back with me, Mike Langner, at mlangner at swcp.com or drop an email directly 
to him, Chris Drummond, KC5IZR, at cedrummo at mac.com 
 
Many, many thanks !  Maybe 
we'll generate the start of a new broadcast engineer!!

Mike, 

We are trying to 
get Amateur TV active in Albuquerque again.   I am Seeking to learn as much 
as I can from people that worked for  a TV station.    That 
leaves me with yourself,  Jeff Burmiester and Al Deme.   


We do have a call sign W5ATN.   We have been working with Mike WA6SVT 
who works for KCLA.   


Mike We Are trying to get the word out and looking for used Equipment, 
 From antenna's, Racks, Translators,  Coax , ect.  that we can 
put back into service  for the W5ATN station.   We plan to have an 
1.2ghz Repeater up with in the next 3 months.
