Greetings!
To my horror I see that our last newsletter was mailed in February of this year, well at least we can't be accused of sending out mountains of SPAM.
Our most exciting news is that we got involved in the miners rescue in Chile, one of our major client's was given the task of broadcasting the rescue to the world. At the last minute they decided that they needed a spare AVL antenna, encoder-modulator and 500 Watt TWTA - we had to scramble, but we got everything there in time.
You can save a bundle of money buying used equipment, but in some cases the savings are irrelevant, in Chile quick delivery time was vital, and only used equipment could meet those goals.
Sincerely,
Phil Thomas

Comtech EFData 50 and 100 watt C-band Transceivers
High Power
 Rugged outdoor transceivers that you can mount on your antenna, reducing the need of an expensive cable run. The will work with any standard 70 MHz modem.
We like Terrasat BUCs and always recommend them if clients must have a BUC, but in this case our used transceivers are cheaper than either their 100 watt or 50 watt BUCs.
We offer our 100 watt for $15,500 and our 50 watt for $11,350

We get strange items from time to time but here is one that we really like. We found this portable uplink system for sale and bought it. This is a totally automatic satellite acquisition system. Choose the satellite, press one button and in less than five minutes you have signal.
The complete package is light enough to be pulled by a medium sizes SUV or a car. Currently it has a brand new 4W BUC and an iDirect modem.
