Professional Resume
Current- Engineering & Consulting Services
Offering technical and programming consultation services to broadcast stations. Recent projects:
· Since 2010, ABIP Mock Inspections for Missouri, Oklahoma, Kansas and Nebraska Broadcasters Associations
Other projects include maintenance of 5 DTV transmitter sites for KRBK-TV Springfield, MO. They had one of the few SFN (single frequency network) or DTS(distributed transmission systems) in the US. It was fed by a C-band satellite system, and direct fiber to some sites. All sites are solid-state digital UHF systems. This was replaced in 2018 by a new single-tower conventional system during repack.

This involved 900mhz Canopy, 2.4ghz and 5.8ghz RF systems, and associated IP-based equipment.
