Great interview, the Nautel output is from FET's and therefore produces beautiful sound. So do tubes in a well maintained transmitter. The Nautel is less expensive to operate, less electricity consumed, and generally less expensive to maintain. This is a beautiful transmitter building and very clean, something transmitters appreciate. 🙂
Nautel transmitters from 1981 are still doing full time duty in many parts of the world. Truly the best quality money can buy. Also Nautel customer service is amazing.
@@richardweirick751 LOL. We are friends actually and he was gracious enough with his time to explain the operations of a commercial radio station :) -Chris
I don’t get why people keep saying the engineer was pissed he seemed perfectly fine and was going with it. That or you guys have never known an engineers personality 😅 looks like he enjoyed it
@@planetzlive I think you are right. I was only 8-9 years old when it happened. I remember WRAL being on channel 40 for several months after it happened until the tower was fixed. It too is off of 70 in the same area if it's the one I'm thinking about.

The Nautel NV 40 or any other Nautel Transmitter deserves recognition as being light years ahead of their time.
A nice looking plant, good job!
Thank you! 😃
I've been to the old WQDR site in Cary where they had a RCA BTF-20E transmitter.

@@richardweirick751 No wonder, the interviewer acts like a jerk.

THE GREATEST RADIO STATION IN THE WORLD,WQDR 94.7 RALEIGH,NC.
My gosh this is a funny interview. The class joker vs captain sensible.
😂
"Hopefully you're coming back down the same way you are going up." Now that's funny!
Yes! I love it!
Despite the class idiot interviewing Einstein vibe, this was actually pretty interesting. That's an impressive bit of infrastructure.
Onmia 11 the best audio processor out there the fm sounds amazing with it

Yeah :)
The engineer was very pissed and annoyed. They’re not used to dealing with people and basic questions though, makes sense now.
I belive this is the tower that fell during the ice storm back in the early 90's
That was the WRAL tower I believe.

@@briancraig81 yeah. I recall that too!
