Our Services:
This project is an
extraordinary event and will take a Herculean effort
from the broadcasters, manufacturers, service vendors, and
Sprint Nextel to accomplish. Your station alone may take from eight
months to over a year to complete.
2GHz
Relocation Project. Essentially, Sprint Nextel is replacing all of your 2GHz
analog equipment, including ancillary gear, with digital microwave gear at no
cost to you; this includes ENG truck radios, Nycoils and cabling, fixed link
radios and receivers, some central receive antennae, receivers, master antenna
control systems, slaves, and more. All of this at no cost to the broadcaster.
Also, Nextel will pay all administrative costs, including your station hiring an
outside company to manage your project from the initial kickoff meeting through
final changeover to an all-digital market.
Most of you are owned by station groups, and by
now one or more stations in your group have begun the conversion process. Ask
any of them if they now wish they had taken advantage of using an outside
project management service company. Each of the initial early markets is now at least
four months behind in its ten-month market plan for conversion and is only in
the first phase of many steps to reach the targeted conversion date.
Extensive
Experience.
Our
Broadcast Engineers have decades of broadcast experience, working as Chief
Engineers and Directors of Engineering (including top ten markets), as well as
working internally at Sprint/Nextel for the last year (or more) on the 2GHz Relocation Project. Our
people have extensive FCC relocation experience, and have worked directly for
Nextel on this project. The QComm team has been working very closely with Nextel
through the development of the entire relocation process. This will be of
benefit to you as QComm processes your relocation.
Remember,
QComm costs are a budgeted line item on your
“relocation agreement,” and we know exactly what Nextel and the FCC requirements
are for this transition.
