BSE supplies FM Transmitters to PNG

In December 2009, BSE completed the supply of FM Transmitter equipment, including UHF links, combiners and antenna systems to NBC of Papua New Guinea. The FM Transmitter equipment covers the RF power ranges from 100W to 2kW for 23 transmitter sites throughout Papua New Guinea for NBC (National Broadcasting Corporation).

The Equipment will be installed by local engineers who visited BSE in Cape Town for Training in September 2009.

At many of the sites NBC will broadcast FM radio for the Kundu and Karai FM Stations, the signals being distributed by Satellite feed from Port Moresby. Most stations have included combiner equipment for integrating a third Program, TRIBE, on each site at a later date. This project has been in the planning for the past three years and its implementation will bring the Voice of PNG to most parts of the expansive country.
