Best Transmission Repair Shops in Waukegan, IL

It is most likely that you can change the channel of your transmitter without too much problem. There are four components of your transmitter that need to be considered. The first is the exciter/modulator/translator, this is very likely to be completely frequency agile and should be able to be moved even between bands I (Low), band II (High) and UHF. The amplifier stage is also most likely to be frequency agile apart from a few specialized Doherty modulated narrowband systems. Amplifiers can only move between channels inside their own band. Band I (2-6), Band III (7-13) and Band IV and V (UHF 14-50). The bandpass filter will have to be re-tuned (see below FAQ on the subject). The transmitter also has been calibrated on a specific channel, and although the calibration will most likely be close, it still needs to be checked by an Anywave authorized engineer. Call our Service department for specific questions on how to change the channel and how we can help.

Yes, we can typically upgrade any existing transmitter to ATSC3.0. We can provide an ATSC3.0 exciter, appropriate pre-amplifiers, and field services to adjust and recalibrate the equipment. Contact your local Anywave Salesman or Authorized Re-seller for a quotation.

A good rule of thumb is that your transmitter will produce about 80% TPO after moving to ATSC3.0. But do not get concerned that this means that you will lose coverage with ATSC3.0, under most conditions with ATSC3.0 technology you will increase coverage and have better reception inside your coverage area even at less power. If you want to increase your transmitter power to compensate for antenna changes (example; moving from horizontal polarization to elliptical polarization), Anywave offers a very generous buy-back program for your existing transmitter. Contact your local Anywave Salesman or Authorized Re-seller for a quotation.

Most Encoders can be upgraded to offer more channels, however, this technology changes at such a fast rate, most likely the entire encoder can be swapped out for a newer version at a lower price, and offer better performance. If you have an Anywave software-based encoder, this more than likely can be upgraded remotely. Contact your local Anywave Salesman or Authorized Re-seller for a quotation.
