Acrodyne's
television
transmitters,
which
range
in
transmission
power
levels
from
one
watt
for
localized
applications
to
tens
of
thousands
of
watts
for
large
television
broadcasters,
have
a
modularized
design
that
permits
Acrodyne
to
respond
to
specific
customer
requests.
Acrodyne
classifies
its
transmitters
into
two
categories
based
upon
the
power
output
of
such
transmitters.
Lower
power
transmitters
and
higher
power
transmitters
transmit
signal
in
both
UHF
and
VHF
frequency
bands.
The
VHF
band
covers
channels
two
through
thirteen
and
the
UHF
band
covers
channels
above
thirteen.
Each
transmitter
permits
the
sender
to
broadcast
over
one
channel,
except
in
the
case
of
adjacent
channel
assignments
for
which
one
transmitter
is
able
to
transmit
two
television
signals,
one
analog
and
one
digital. | More
