WBCQ Super station update   
Thursday, July 29 2021

bclnews


I was in contact with Allan Weiner July 28.

He tells me that a new TH576 tube has been ordered from Thales in
France. He did not confirm whether the failed tube was under warranty.
Delivery is expected in 4 weeks.

Regarding 9330 - he states that for now a small back-up transmitter is
coupled directly to the Ampegon antenna.  Allan did not answer my
question regarding
its location or output power.  I guess it might be 5 kW or even less and
it is probably situated in the base of the antenna tower. It can't have
been an easy job to connect the wiring and feeder lines. I think the big
antenna is pointed in only one direction (270 degrees?) for the moment,
until the 500 kW is back on air and everything is computer controlled again.
