Building
Trucks
by Bennett Liles
Building a truck for broadcast remotes is an expensive and time-consuming
task. Anyone embarking on such a venture must start the process with
good reason. Perhaps your company’s experience and workload dictate
that an additional truck, available on short notice and with a known
configuration, is needed. It is possible that a long run of specialized
productions justifies a custom-designed and equipped vehicle. Whatever

advances provides many advantages. The use of CAT5 or fiber cable with
digital audio and control signals meets the requirements for flexibility
and functionality in today’s progressive broadcast facilities. The use
of LAN and WAN network technologies are the logical choice for operators
who need to share audio and data among multiple stations in various markets.
Using digital technology within the facility environment can dramatically
improve efficiency of production. more
