2007 was a pretty productive year engineering wise.  I started with WPR in October of 2006.

Here are just a few highlights from the past year…

  • Installed HD and HD2 signals on KUWR along with new digital STL
  • Completely re-built Production Room C
  • Cleaned up equipment racks and wiring in Engineering
  • Replaced entire WPR satellite distribution system
  • Completed transition to Content Depot satellite delivery of national programming
  • Installed HD2 signals in Casper and Jackson
  • Installed new satellite uplink dish and amplifier
  • Major repairs to Rock Springs transmitter and building
  • Started the process of re-wiring all remote control systems
  • Started installing additional monitoring equipment
  • Installation of new generator at Laramie transmitter site
  • Two new stations on the air in Laramie (KUWL, KUWY)
  • Staffing changes in Engineering

Andrea and I have now been in Laramie for over a year and really like it here. We hope to be here for a very very long time.
