Shortwave Transmitters

Shortwave transmitters may be used to broadcast radio programmes or data streams over regional, national or even intercontinental distances to an unlimited number of receivers. At any time, anywhere in the world, we predict that you can hear a shortwave broadcast from an Ampegon transmitter.
In order to meet the demands for long-distance communications, Ampegon produces two distinct ranges of transmitters: lower power solid state- and higher power tube transmitters.

Tube transmitters are available with 100kW, 300kW or 500kW maximum power ratings, while the solid-state range is modular with power outputs between 1.5kW and 25kW.

Ampegon Transmitters are supplied with our innovative UCS control system, which allows users to control each transmitter, selecting output power, broadcast mode, and analogue/digital operation with ease from a single touch screen. As a founding member of the DRM consortium, all Ampegon shortwave transmitters are DRM-capable and able to be customized for proprietary digital functions if necessary.

Broadcast transmitters can be supplied alone, or along with a range of broadcast auxiliaries, necessary for remote control and monitoring, and test loads.
