REC announces the start of a major system transition plan: "System40"

By admin | 9:58 AM EST, Sun November 19, 2023

REC Networks has been known for running our assets "into the ground".  This includes our past phone system hardware, the software and hardware that we use and even the cars we drive.

With many of the components of the REC database infrastucture reaching or already past their end of life with some portions serving the universe for up to 20 years, it is time to do a major systems overhaul.  

In 2024, we will launch the "System40" initative.  System40 is named to coincide with the 40th anniversary of REC Networks.

REC and NAB ask FCC to extend EAS CAP Polling compliance date

  • Read more about FAQ: Why should a second-adjacent short-spaced LPFM proposal be as close as possible to the second-adjacent channel station(s)? That seems highly illogical. I thought it was, the further, the better.

All LPFM proposals need to provide minimum distance separations to domestic FM facilities (full-service, FM translator and LPFM) and vacant FM allotments on co-channel and first-adjacent channels.  They must also meet a minimum distance separation to full-service FM, FM translator and vacant FM allotments on second-adjacent channels.
