Safety is vital, literally. Safety signs issue the warning. |
Equipment of this kind is installed with every possible consideration
for proper, safe, and reliable installation and operation. |
|
The back of the open cabinet reveals RF module output assemblies
unique to the DX series transmitters. |
During the installation of newly shipped equipment, a step by step
review of setup and inspection procedures is necessary to be sure everything
is still bolted together properly. |
|
This is where the DX-10's primary line voltage is connected. |
In this cabinet, remote control, audio, and RF connections are prepared. |
|
Here's a good way to keep the kinks out of the antenna line.
Sharp bends in the line can damage the coaxial cable, so clamps are installed
to prevent accidental damage to the line by excessive bending. |
The antenna transmission line is well secured to the ceiling by
hangars, and positioned to minimize sharp turns in the line. |
|
It's alive! The power now applied, we see an indication that
things were done right! |
The power output meter is indicating the expected 5,000 watt output
power. |
|
Here we can see the DX-10 in its final position, installed and operating! |
One last look as night falls and we look back toward the building
to see the new transmitter in place. |
