With the push of a button, Telemundo 47 / WNJU became the first Tri-State television station to officially resume over-the-air transmissions from One World Trade Center. The station announced, during a special ceremony in Lower Manhattan, that its signal will be powered by the most powerful, solid-state broadcast transmitter ever constructed.
“This is a significant achievement. Telemundo 47’s over-the-air broadcast signal has become the very first to resume transmission from One World Trade Center. We are particularly proud that Telemundo 47 – a Spanish language television station – was the first television station in the market to do so. This pioneering moment became possible through the leadership of the best engineering and technology team in television, as well as through a great partnership with The Durst Organization,” said Cristina Schwarz, Telemundo 47 president and general manager.
Only twelve linear feet in size, Telemundo 47’s over-the-air transmitter is powered by 66 kilowatts of cutting-edge technology. This power will provide Telemundo 47 with the largest coverage area of any television station in the New York market.
Later this year, the transmitter will also power the over-the-air signal from sister station NBC 4 New York / WNBC, which is preparing to relocate its transmission facilities to One World Trade Center.
Telemundo 47 will officially cease over-the-air transmissions from the Empire State Building effective June 30.
Working with Durst, Telemundo 47 has also installed a new camera on the One World Trade Center spire, providing viewers with a clear shot of the Brooklyn Bridge, Manhattan Bridge and other key landmarks in Lower Manhattan.
