West Virginia Radio Strives Towards the Skies
In a recent visit to the West Virginia tower, Alex Mackensen, the southeast regional engineering manager at Educational Media Foundation/K-Love & Air1 Media Networks, expressed his admiration for the improvements made to the facility. Mackensen's visit was not for emergency repairs, but to bring the project up to the standards set at headquarters and tidy up loose ends.
Mackensen, who was previously a field engineer for the media networks, shared a snapshot of the West Virginia tower, one of the 24 signals he built and maintained. During his drive to the tower, he listened to the improved equipment rack format, expressing his admiration for the new design.
Recently, Mackensen delivered seven new equipment racks and installed six of them in the West Virginia tower. The racks were delivered fully wired, labeled, and programmed, a service provided by specialized companies in the electronic and radio communications sector. A&J Manufacturing, for instance, is recognized for their expertise in crafting electronic equipment racks with features like noise suppression and grounding techniques to enhance equipment performance and reliability.
However, not many radio organizations drop-ship completed racks for on-site installation. Mackensen stated that the West Virginia tower's improvements were a testament to the company's commitment to quality and efficiency.
Mackensen's visit to the West Virginia tower was not prompted by any equipment malfunction. Instead, it was a maintenance and upkeep visit, a process that Mackensen referred to as a ministry. He expressed his gratitude for the opportunity to serve and maintain the tower, which he described as a ministry.
