RE: https://graeber.social/@DGI/116500891053079405
When I worked in #BroadcastEngineering in late 1990s, I saw then high tech kit which could have been used for making better #TV programmes (especially live broadcasts) instead being deployed to reduce headcount at TV stations and merge their playout centres (which is how UK commercial broadcaster #ITV went from 16 regions to just one company)

Limited vs Full Range Video
HDMI, DisplayPort, and SDI — What Engineers Keep Getting Wrong If you’ve ever seen: Gray blacks Crushed shadow detail Blown highlights A “washed-out” LED wall A QC rejection for “illegal levels” There’s a very good chance you were dealing with a range mismatch. Limited vs Full range video is one of the most misunderstood topics in AV engineering. And the confusion only gets worse when you move between HDMI, DisplayPort, and SDI. Let’s fix that.

#NHS Estates gave security clearance for pictures of the #transmitter #infrastructure of #Ipswich #CommunityRadio to be published, you can now see what me and my friends hauled up to the top of the Maternity block and installed in the plantroom..

its also an indictment of the decline in public service #broadcasting that #STV (which used to be a European leader in #BroadcastEngineering as recently as the late 1990s/early 2000s) could only release a vertical #YouTube video and not even show the televisor in full action..

Students in #Scotland have rebuilt a modern replica of the original #television set invented by #Scotsman John Logie #Baird - in time for October, when it will be 100 years after he first demonstrated it was possible to televise moving pictures.. #TV #BroadcastEngineering

1985: me and my friend from highschool experimenting with 2 transistor home built FM #transmitters, later #Stentor kit from the #Netherlands, transmitting between 105,6/105,7/105,8 MHz (depending on how much TX had drifted) and putting 1km "not spot" into comms for British Rail and Reading Buses on their then new Stornophone #VHF radio schemes (which bizarrely had mobile TX on 150+MHz and base on 105-106 MHz (this portion of the band wasn't officially allocated to broadcasting back then!)
2025: working with my friends at #IpswichCommunityRadio doing it all legally on 105.7 - 50W TX power, stereo, digital soundprocessing, dynamic RDS, about 30-40km range, full telemetry on the transmitter and bandpass filter so we don't upset anyone else on the band.
Listening to Em's 80s Hour of Fun last night (she featured 1985 on the episode) reminded me of this (and that 40 years have passed since I started being involved with #radio!)
(en eindelijk na 40 jaar kan ik ook de andere kant van de bouwfolder (die was in het Nederlands geschreven) voor de Stentor lezen!)

The #Coomber schools #radio cassette pulls in the signal from #MidSuffolk even with just its internal #antenna (it does have to be in a particular part of the office to get any reception, but it works better than many modern receivers) #FM #VHF #BroadcastEngineering #CommunityRadio #Ipswich #Suffolk

Monitoring the #transmitter #telemetry, dynamic #RDS and the audio on a car radio from #MidSuffolk (it is good, no overdeviation and the endstage is staying at a constant temperature of around 35 degrees Celsius)

The new #transmitter I tested last week was installed at #Ipswich #CommunityRadio today in plant room of the general hospital (antenna is on maternity block) along with a SIM for a better LTE network, we now have full 50W output and full telemetry/control available via the PC (which also does #soundprocessing and #RDS ), so I can check all this is working (including keeping an eye on the FM deviation and TX endstage temperature) from home or my office 20 km away.. #BroadcastEngineering #Suffolk
