From our Who’s Buying What page: North American Tower Company has made a multi-site purchase of the Stellar Eclipse broadcast site monitoring system.

Stellar Eclipse is made by Shulins’ Solutions, which announced the sale.

“With this purchase [North American Tower] will increase their deployment of Stellar Eclipse to over 70 sites across the top 50 markets protecting over 350 of radio and TV stations,” Shulins stated in the press release.

“Shared common antenna sites often with complex combining networks demand monitoring and protection beyond a simple remote control. To protect these significant investments, broadcasters need a proactive solution to not only provide next level of monitoring, logging and control, but a comprehensive VSWR system for maximum protection.”

It said North American is deploying a platform and architecture to protect the RF systems for FM and all formats of analog digital TV on VHF and UHF including ATSC 3.0. It also is using cloud-based monitoring of shared systems that Shulins says are often overlooked in an individual station’s remote control.

Shulins’ Solutions also offers drone-based tower inspections and broadcast consulting services.
