  • Abstract
    The factors leading to the choice of an all-solid-state 50-kW medium-wave broadcast transmitter are examined, and its advantages over vacuum-tube-type transmitters of the same power are discussed. The installation and operation of the transmitter are described. The transmitter has demonstrated high levels of performance and reliability. Energy savings and reduction of maintenance times have been achieved
