Clear Channel Broadcasting Inc. Chooses Ai's Analog/Digital Water-Cooled e2v ESCIOT Powered Quantum Transmitter for WPMI-TV Ch15.

COCKEYSVILLE, Md. -- Acrodyne Industries, Inc. (Ai), a leading manufacturer of television broadcast transmission equipment, today announced that Clear Channel Broadcasting Inc. has selected Ai's Depressed Collector Quantum(R) transmitter using the e2v ESCIOT(R) water-cooled tubes for the analog application at WPMI-TV (NBC 15) in Mobile, AL. The replacement is a result of hurricane Ivan damage to the existing tower. WPMI lost approx. 1200 feet of their old tower requiring an immediate relocation of its channel 15 transmission facilities. The new two-tube transmitter will replace an older, lower efficiency, three tube Comark Klystron system. Installation is scheduled for a November completion. Ai shipped the two-tube Quantum IOT immediately after WPMI placed the order enabling installation to begin less than a month after the storm.

Ai's Quantum transmitters represent the state of the art in UHF transmission. The Quantum series of transmitters, using the water-cooled e2v ESCIOT are designed to efficiently operate in either digital or analog service and are field convertible. Equivalent energy savings are available in either mode of operation. Using water-cooling and collector depression, Quantum transmitters provide a very high level of energy efficiency and reliability, which continues to be proven at an increasing number of field installations. The power usage at WPMI-TV will be reduced by over $110,000.00 a year compared to the original Klystron transmitter.

Nat Ostroff, Chairman and President of Ai, commented, "Once again another leading Broadcast organization has chosen the Ai Quantum transmitter line. We at Ai are extremely proud to receive this vote of confidence from Clear Channel. The proven reliability and energy savings of the ESCIOT powered Quantum transmitters continue to set records in energy savings and signal performance as well as customer confidence".
