    Brief

    The BBC World Service is seeking information from manufacturers and suppliers of VHF FM broadcast transmitters for its global terrestrial radio network. The BBC operates FM relay stations across diverse territories and challenging environments, including remote locations with limited technical support. Equipment must be robust and resilient to handle demanding conditions such as extreme temperature fluctuations, high humidity, dust, corrosion, and unstable power supply. Preferred transmitters should feature conformal coating for enhanced protection against moisture and corrosion, straightforward installation and operation, simplified troubleshooting with minimal specialist expertise, modular design for easy replacement, and long-term reliability with reduced maintenance requirements. Suppliers should be capable of demonstrating their ability to meet these specifications and provide adequate logistical support for equipment procurement, delivery, and spare parts in remote regions.
