KFJL-AM Radio licensed to Central Point, Oregon just recently completed the
installation of a new KinStar AM low profile antenna for operation on
1400kHz with a 1kW transmitter. The wooden utility poles used to support
the KinStar in this case are 65-feet above the ground level yet this
antenna has comparable efficiency to a 176-foot tall standard broadcast
tower that is approximately three times the KinStar height with audio
bandwidth that is suitable for AM Ibiquity HD radio. This antenna concept
was originally conceived by Star-H Corporation in Lancaster, PA and was
developed into a marketable broadcast product as a result of a joint
development effort between Star-H Corporation and Kintronic Labs. The
KinStar has been type accepted by the FCC for full time omni-directional
operation in the US market. The KFJL antenna is the fourth KinStar that has
been installed, which is evidence that the unique features of the KinStar
are being realized by a growing number of broadcasters. Please contact us
today if you have an interest in installing one of these eco-friendly AM
antennas in your market.
