Modulation Sciences (MSI) will offer all owners of its PRO-3 PRO Channel receivers a 40 percent discount on its forthcoming Data Return Link(DRL) receiver.
After more than a year of testing operating with an FCC experimental license, MSI settled on a robust digital modulator that will allow up to four voice channels in each of the 40 25kHz DRL channels per market that will come into existence with the culmination of the 2GHz TV BAS relocation project.
That translates into up to 160 channels of IFB per digital market — a sufficient number of channels to allow all BAS users to provide their remote on-air personnel with individual mix-minus feeds, even in the largest markets. DRL cannot be activated, however, until the new 2GHz band plan goes into effect.
The DRL equipment will be available six months before the analog shutdown, or one year after 25 percent of the market converts to the new 2GHz BAS band plan — whichever happens first.
