The Broadcasters' Desktop Resource

Greetings from your broadcast friends out on the Desert…
This is BDR Newsletter 825, Volume 16, #45 for June 4, 2025

Here are some things you might want to know about:

ASYMMETRICAL HD NOW AVAILABLE
Stations from 88.1 to 106.9 MHz (not in the 107 MHz channels) are able to fill out an online form and begin operating with asymmetrical sidebands.

WILL ASYMMETRY HELP YOU?
Understanding what asymmetry is and how it can help your station(s) is our timely topic this week. Jeff Welton from Nautel does his monthly drop-in and will explain the ins and outs of asymmetrical operation, and how you can decide if you should implement it.

Join us on Thursday at 2 PM … 11 AM Pacific for this informative discussion. The link request is at www.theBDR.net/TLG/ and we will also be live on youtube’s thebdrnet channel.

EAS AS SOFTWARE
Did you miss last week’s discussion with Ed Czarnecki? As with all our videos, we post them, usually the next day. The EAS as software discussion was of interest to a lot of folks. You can see it by checking the Latest Videos on www.theBDR.net/TLG/

Also, you might be interested to know we are now booked until September, with one open week, with some great presentations. Check the same page for the list of upcoming presentations: www.theBDR.net/TLG/
