A Connoisseur Media FM has been forced to deliver its Classic Alternative programming exclusively via streaming audio since Thursday evening, as a strong July 2 storm sent the station's tower just east of the Fox River in suburban Chicago toppling to the ground.

Liquid-cooled transmission systems are designed to help broadcasters support high-power RF operations with improved thermal management, efficient facility planning, and long-term system reliability. A July 15 webinar presented by GatesAir will offer a close-up look at the "practical advantages" of these offerings.

It describes itself as a "global buy-and-hold forever" acquirer of communications and media software businesses. As Canada Day was celebrated ahead of Independence Day in the U.S., the company revealed that it has acquired Imagine Communications through one of its subsidiaries.

The life of a transmitter is a critical conversation topic one in the C-Suite must have working knowledge of. Nautel Chief Executive Officer Kevin Rodgers is just the person to explain why. In this interview, he outlines the tell-tale signs that it's time for a replacement — and why continued repairs are a dollar-sucker.

When it comes to national television spots on broadcast TV, there's one brand that towers over the rest with respect to commitment week in and week out to the medium. For the week ending July 5, this advertiser was linked to nearly 50,000 spots detected by Media Monitors.

The change follows requests from College Broadcasters Inc., the Pala Band of Mission Indians, the National Federation of Community Broadcasters, Native Public Media, the National Congress of American Indians, and the Community Media Assistance Project. The groups cited summer staffing gaps, among other things.

There's a hidden retention challenge impacting the streaming industry, new research from entertainment and technology marketing organization CTAM and Hub Entertainment Research finds. But, it isn't price or content quality that's driving the cancellations.

As of July 13, the Senior VP of Engineering, Operations and Technology position role at FOX Television Stations will be held by an individual who most recently served in a similar role at TEGNA. He succeeds Tim Joyce, who retired at the end of June.

Originally requested by academic, Tribal and community media interests, REC supports this delay as it is consistent with past NCE filing windows.

He has more than 22 years of sales experience for such broadcast technology companies as Harris, ERI, IBS, SCMS, and GatesAir. Until his "retirement" in October 2023, he spent five years as a regional sales manager covering the eastern U.S. for Nautel. Retirement didn't suit Ted Nahil. He's now returned to Nautel.

Community and college groups were among those asking for more time

Some 18 months after being handed a Notice of Apparent Liability of Forfeiture and essentially ignoring the proposed financial penalty courtesy of the FCC, a Waterbury, Conn. man found to be a pirate radio operator has received a Forfeiture Order enforcing a $40,000 fine for his actions.

It's a Class C3 radio station that gained attention with Swifties for stunting with an all-Taylor Swift format ahead of her New York nuptials to NFL star Travis Kelce. On the day of the superstar wedding at Madison Square Garden, Beasley Media Group stopped the music by giving birth to a brand new radio station that's all about celebrating.
