<br>
In short, the transmitter for KTQA-LP is starting to die. I've replaced <br>
a couple components and reworked some bits on the controller board, and <br>
I'm getting dangerously close to the parts where firmware access will be <br>
required to debug and repair. I'm going to keep at it but the general <br>
faith in the transmitter has basically evaporated. It's a BW Broadcast <br>
TX300V2, for those interested. So we're looking for a new one at a <br>
point where we weren't ready for one.<br>
<br>
Does anyone have anything lying about that could be put to use <br>
LPFM-wise? Need something that can do roughly 100W, but headroom is <br>
nice. Our current budget would be best described as "existent but comedic."<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>
<br>
-Sam, N9MII<br>
