Andy Whiteside, Vice President of Engineering for Ai, will present a paper on IOT Depressed Collector Transmitter Technology during the NAB 2005 Broadcast Engineering Conference. This session, “DTV Transition Technologies and Techniques”, is scheduled for Sunday, April 17, at 1:30 pm in the LVCC Room N112. The paper is a technical review of the latest installed Ai water-cooled, depressed collector IOT transmitters. An in depth review of the challenges and resulting solutions in the design phase will be presented. Operating results from several fully operational analog and digital installations will confirm the financial and signal quality benefits now being enjoyed by those broadcasters.

The savings realized by broadcasters already using this equipment are significant, immediate, and very likely to increase as power costs increase

The equipment, Quantum Depressed Collector Transmitters, will be featured in the Ai NAB booth #C6212. Also on display will be the Rohde & Schwarz liquid-cooled and air-cooled, LDMOS, solid-state transmitters.

This unique installation is the industry’s first installed depressed collector IOT analog transmitter.

Acrodyne Industries (AI) announced that WNUV, the Baltimore MD area WB affiliate, had installed AI's first Quantum transmitter designed for both analog and digital operation using the e2v water cooled depressed collector IOTs. The AI press release said, "This unique installation is the industry's first installed depr

In June, the station installed an Ai two-tube ESCIOT depressed collector analog/digital Quantum transmitter that reduced power expenses by $13,000 per month

The transmitter uses the latest generation of plug-in style MSDC IOTs, both 3- and 5-stage.

Field-proven, de-ionized water-cooling eliminates all of the hazards and pitfalls associated with circulating oil systems.

Pappas Telecasting has selected Ai Quantum UHF transmitters with e2v ESCIOT water-cooled tubes for two of its stations. The transmitters for WSWS-TV in the Columbus, Ga. market and WMMF-TV in the Green-Bay, Wis. market will use the transmitters for analog service. Both stations will transmit 5,000 kW effective radiated
