[SBE] Generator readiness

[Milford Smith]

Curt,

 

  You may wish to speak with Keith Smeal, Greater Media's NJ director of
technical operations who, along with his amazing technical team,  kept our
six NJ stations on air throughout Sandy, and in one case, for over two weeks
following, with every facility on generator. He's reachable at
ksmeal at greatermedianj.com.

 

Best,

 

Milford Smith

As a few of you may know, I occasionally write for Radio World.  I'm
starting work on an article about studio and/or transmitter generator
readiness, especially as it pertains to lessons learned from Hurricane
Sandy.

I'm looking to talk to engineers whose stations were directly affected by
Sandy and how they managed to stay on the air -- or didn't, particularly
where backup power was concerned.  I'd also like to hear about your setup,
how you chose what you have, and maybe what you might do differently in the
future.

Thanks in advance!

Curt
