Harris Corporation awarded contract to build new Algerian MW stations

October 3rd, 2007 - 10:49 UTC by Andy Sennitt

Harris Corporation has been awarded a $15 million contract to deploy two turnkey, mediumwave radio transmission stations for the Algerian Government’s Telediffusion D’Algerie (TDA), the Algerian public broadcasting corporation. The stations, at F’kirina and Sidi Bel Abbes, are part of the government’s program to modernize the country’s television and radio infrastructure.

The project, to be completed in 2009, includes the design and construction of the two radio transmission stations, the procurement and installation of the towers and the antenna systems, as well as the delivery and installation of 600kW mediumwave AM transmitters.

TDA will utilize its Harris DX(R) series of high-power radio transmitters, which already has a very large installed base worldwide. The transmitters are designed to broadcast analogue or digital in the HD Radioâ„¢ or Digital Radio Mondiale (DRM) standards.
