“Radio World is the best radio magazine in the industry, and our ad got us results quick!”

The people who manage and operate U.S. radio stations, net-works and new media organiza-tions face a bewildering world

of available platforms and tools: licensed transmission, online streaming, mobile

apps, multicasting, transla-tors, podcasts, RDS, metadata and much more.

Radio broadcasters are cross-platform providers. This new “information economy” can be scary or it can be exciting; Radio World helps our readers — the engineers, operations managers and top executives of the U.S. radio industry — understand this world and thrive in it, so they can employ not only FM and AM transmitters but also the many new digital and consumer electronics-based tools available to them.

“I watched you from the beginning when you started on this publication, and today it is the premier magazine for radio news all over the world. In every broadcast organization office that I have visited all over the world, there it was: Radio World sitting on top of the desk.”

As these real reader comments indicate, Radio World is the leading news source for broadcast radio owners, managers and engineers.

It is delivered bi-weekly (26x), in a bright, airy popular print format or in a digital edition featuring live Web links and rich media content. Meanwhile, Radio World’s website and e-mailed

newsletters have become a favorite source in the industry for daily breaking news as well as deep archival material.

We’re part of the growing NewBay Media family, which includes other leading broadcast titles like Broadcasting & Cable, TV Technology and the NAB Daily News.

“I work as a broadcast consultant and trainer with stations around the world. Every engineer I know reads it. When each new issue arrives, they sit, make coffee and read.”

Happy anniversary to Radio World Engineering Extra, which turns 10 this year! Six times every year, a select readership made up strictly of engineers and group DOEs enjoys RW Engineering Extra and its white papers, digital radio tips and hard-core engineer-ing content.

“Today, there is only one comprehensive source: Radio World.”

Some trade publications are behind in understanding the implications of the new “cross-platform” world. Radio World is different. We see that the radio world has evolved. We know that strategic technical decisions now involve engineering, IT, promotions, “digital” management and many other considerations. So our content serves the new breed of radio managers who are savvy about managing across platforms.

Do you want to reach these decision makers? Let Radio World be your partner, online and in print, in creating sophis-ticated advertising campaigns and brand extension.

The Harris Broadcast Communica-

tions Division soon will have a new

owner. Barring some unforeseen compli-

cation, the transfer to The Gores Group

LLC will be finalized early this year.

The announcement settles uncertain-

ty over Harris Broadcast’s immediate

future. Now the focus moves to ques-

tions about how the owner will operate

the long-time manufacturer of radio and

TV transmitters, STL equipment, con-

soles and other systems.

Harris Corp. met its self-imposed

year-end deadline of selling the division

in early December. It reached an agree-

ment to sell the division for a package

worth up to $225 million. Gores is a

private equity firm that has a variety

of holdings including a partial stake

in syndication giant Dial Global. Its

founder has been described as a “fixer-

upper” and once said he has a “formula

to save companies” (see sidebar).

Division President Harris Morris

wrote to employees: “Being owned by

The Gores Group as a privately-held

company will enable Harris Broadcast

to capitalize on our market-leading

position, continue to pursue growth

opportunities, and aggressively respond

to continually evolving market trends

and customer needs.” The sale price includes $160 million

in cash at closing, which is expected to

take place early in 2013. Some broadcast

observers questioned the price, calling it

low in light of past Harris purchases to

bulk up. For example, Harris spent $340

million to acquire Encoda Systems in

2004 and $450 million to acquire Leitch

Technologies in 2005.

In a note to clients, Devoncroft, a

market research firm, compared the cash

portion of the deal to a price of $200

million or more that Harris Corp. CEO

William Brown had telegraphed to the

market. As recently as October, officials

had put a net book value of $287 million

on the company’s broadcast communica-

tions business, which Brown said at the

time “gives an indication of the value

we expect to receive” from the sale,

according to Devoncroft. The analyst

speculated about whether Gores Group

might use Harris Broadcast as a platform

for further expansion into the broadcast

industry or break up the division and

sell it off.

‘Great products and a Great team’

The Gores Group didn’t comment

publically on the purchase other than a

press release statement from Ryan Wald,

by Cris alexanderWith this article, we begin the

account — the saga, really — of the

relocation of the KBRT(AM) transmit-ter site from Santa Catalina Island to a

new locale on the mainland. What makes it both a saga and, we

hope, of interest to broadcast engineers

and professionals are that the process

took 5-1/2 years and required the services

of environmental, architectural, cultural,

political and engineering consultants, in

addition to the personal involvement of

many within our company. This was no handoff to an outsourced

project manager. It was, instead, a way

of life for me and several others in our

company.Today we’ll deal with the challenges

and obstacles we faced before the first

spade of dirt was turned. We’ll conclude

with the actual construction in Part 2,

which will be published in August.THE BEGINNINGSince late 1979, Crawford Broadcast-ing Company has owned and operated

KBRT in Southern California. The sta-tion airs on 740 kHz and is licensed to

Avalon, the tiny one-square-mile harbor

town on Santa Catalina Island, “Twenty-six miles across the sea …” Since 1952, it has transmitted from a

site in the island’s interior. The seawater

path to the mainland coast gave KBRT’s

10 kW signal the unique advantage of

a very low attenuation path to all of

Southern California, from Santa Bar-bara to San Diego, something no other

station could claim.When the long-term transmitter site

lease was negotiated, 2013 must have

seemed like forever in the future. In

2005 and 2006, with the expiration date

looming, I began trying to negotiate a

new lease for the station, but I didn’t get

very far.

Julius Marchwicki is all about the apps.

as global product manager for Ford Sync applink, he’s at the center of what automakers are doing to entice young people into buying cars. Bigger engines don’t do the trick any-more, according to experts in that world; so Marchwicki works with companies like Pandora, Stitcher and clear channel to deliver in-vehicle connectivity to infotainment sources.

Sync is the automak-er’s connectivity system, applink is an applica-tion programming inter-face. Marchwicki works with companies in application development and content creation and distribution, wireless handset and plat-form development, to deliver features into cars that consumers want.

The Northwestern university com-puter engineering grad spoke with Radio world News Editor/washington Bureau chief leslie Stimson about how “radio” in all of its forms fits into the new dashboard, part of a new series of articles on radio’s role in the evolving world of consumer electronics.

RW: When you think of radio, what comes to mind?Marchwicki: when I think of radio, I think of an easy way to access localized content for any reason anywhere in the world. That content can be anything. It’s music, it’s news, it’s all sorts of things.
