Our Founder & History
Jim Dugan
Founder | CEO
Over the past 25 years in broadcast television, I’ve been through just about every technical curveball the field can throw. I’ve dealt with power failures, faulty fiber lines, dead batteries, fried transformers, mismatched connectors, microwave link drops during storms, and more than one piece of gear that arrived wrong or didn’t work at all. I’ve had to reroute signals, rebuild setups under pressure, swap out amps on the fly, and recalibrate frequencies in real time.
From unexpected weather shifts to last-minute production changes, I’ve learned how to adjust quickly, troubleshoot creatively, and keep the signal moving—no matter what.
This industry demands both precision and adaptability. It’s not just about knowing the gear, it’s about knowing how to pivot when things break, shift, or go sideways. That’s where the experience counts.
And despite it all? I still love this work. I love the people. I love the energy. I love the craft.
I started as a musician and recording engineer and found my way into television through trial, error, and a bit of grace. Somewhere along the way, RF and wireless adopted me—and I’ve never looked back.
To the engineers, techs, and creatives I’ve worked with across decades: thank you. Here’s to the next show, the next challenge, and the next opportunity to keep making it better.
