TEGNA's KONG-TV announced it has partnered with GatesAir on the technological infrastructure for the launch of NextGen TV in the Seattle-Tacoma market. Pending final FCC approvals, TEGNA's independent station KONG-TV plans to begin NextGen TV broadcasts for KONG-TV and KING 5, the NBC affiliate in Seattle, in early December, with KONG-TV serving as the host, or lighthouse station. GatesAir will supply its Maxiva ULXTE-30 liquid-cooled transmitter to support over-the-air transmission of the NextGen TV signal. GatesAir will also provide installation and commissioning support leading up to the early December launch. GatesAir, a portfolio company of The Gores Group, provides solutions for over-the-air radio and television broadcasting.
