During November and December 2008, Romkatel supplied antenna systems in two locations in Serbia.

Ovcar station is situated near Carak city and Crveni Cot station near Novi Sad city. Both stations will benefit from new antenna systems for the UHF, VHF and FM frequencies.

At first, these antenna systems will be used in the analogue environment, but they are also 100% digital (DVB-T) ready.
One of the systems presented an interesting challenge: the horizontal radiation diagram had to have different restrictions for both analogue and digital operation.

Although Ovcar station is located at approx. 1.000 m altitude and the weather conditions were not too favorable in December last year, Romkatel managed to install and commission the UHF radiant system, immediately after delivery.

Romkatel’s future projects in Serbia include installing UHF, VHF and FM systems for the Avala TV tower near Belgrad.
