Operation of two new broadcasting facilities

For the digital terrestrial transmission of the four channels ORF 1, ORF 2 Steiermark, ATVplus and the test channel !TV4GRAZ with its additional MHP services, it was necessary to acquire, install and operate two DVB-T broadcasting facilities. The facilities were set up at two locations belonging to Telekom Austria and Connect Austria in Graz.
At Telekom Austria‘s facility, the broadcasting antennas were mounted on the existing mobile network mast and the broadcasting devices were installed in the Telekom Austria building. At Connect Austria‘s location, the antennas were also mounted on the existing mast and the devices were housed in a container placed there for that purpose.
The broadcast transmitters were operated in single frequency network (SFN) mode, that is, they broadcast synchronously on the same frequency (channel 62) with an output power of approximately 750 Watts each after filtering.
