We’re on the hunt for a fault at a remote FM broadcast transmitter site for a local community radio station. In Part 1, we start at the studio, investigating the STL (Studio-to-Transmitter Link) antennas that send the signal to the main broadcast site. Will we find the issue? Stay tuned as we troubleshoot and work to get this FM station back on air!

I just picked up a Icom IC-706MkIIG – almost in brand new condition recently. I couldn’t resist it – I had one of these radios years ago, and they are a great rig for the car or portable!
