WNYC Awards Contract to Harris, D.A.V.I.D.

A linear-audio automation system from D.A.V.I.D. Systems Inc. is part of a facility contract awarded to Harris Corp. by WNYC in New York.
According to a D.A.V.I.D. official, the stations will use a DigaSystem radio automation system.
“The entire architecture is based on the HD Radio standard 44 kHz/16 bit linear, built on a Gigabit Ethernet infrastructure,” Richard Doll told Radio World Online. The value of the contract is approximately $345,000, not including installation services.
“The initial phase will include WNYC’s FM/AM on-air operations, all ingest, a fully automated bi-directional bridge to the existing ProTools SAN, a traffic-and-billing interface and QC.” Doll said the facility is expected to be on the air in the first quarter of next year.
The director of engineering in charge at WNYC is Steve Shultis.
