PLAYER PROFILES

George
Director of Engineering,
15-station TV group
He’s got an ambitious vision – 100% digital and consolidating facilities – on a very fast track. Can he keep his promises to management, and his job?

Doris
General Manager, two public TV stations in middle America
She’s a 20-year broadcast pro, but no engineer. How will she design and spec the right system to convert to digital, and still leverage her legacy in analog?

Dave
Operations and Engineering Manager, independent station, top-50 market
A hands-on workaholic, he’s building his way to HD out of a mix of analog and SDI. How will he get there in little steps, without wasting any money along the way?

Bill
Chief Engineer, independently owned station, small market
Doubles as an engineer for the AM/FM radio stations. How will he move to digital on a micro-budget. Hint: he plans to exploit his suppliers.

JW
VP of Engineering, major TV network
He led his network’s move to HD. Now it’s time for his 20 network-owned stations to convert to digital, but they can't agree on one set of suppliers. Who will see it JW’s way? Who gets axed?
