Broadcast engineering
An engineer when you don’t have one on staff.
Contract broadcast engineering for radio stations without a full-time engineer.
Contract engineering from someone who keeps thirty-one stations on the air. Site visits, studio builds, and a straight answer before you spend money on gear.
On site in Wisconsin, Minnesota and Iowa. Remote anywhere in the U.S.How it works
- You describe the problem
- I look at it, on site or remote
- Written fix and parts list
Works for one-off projects or an ongoing retainer. Bring the gear you have; I’ll tell you what’s worth keeping.
What's included
- Site visits Transmitter, STL and studio checks with notes you can hand to the next person.
- Studio builds Wiring, consoles, and audio chains laid out so the next tech can follow them.
- RF and STL Paths, links and backups planned before something fails at 3am.
- Gear advice What to buy, what to keep, what to stop paying support on.
- Documentation Drawings, IP lists and passwords in one place you own.
- On call Optional. A number that rings when the carrier drops.
Good fit if
- — Your engineer retired and the binder went with him.
- — You’re buying gear and want someone to check the plan first.
- — Something’s been "a little off" for months.
Questions
Is this one-off or ongoing?
Either. A single project, or an ongoing retainer if you want someone on call.
Can you check a plan before I buy gear?
Yes. Send the plan and quotes, and you get a written review before you spend the money.
