Operation and Maintenance of FM Broadcast Transmitter Systems in Niger



USAGM is currently licensed by the Niger government to provide Voice of America (VOA) programming on 102.5 Mhz in the Niamey Metropolitan area. USAGM is considering expanding its radio coverage to other areas of the country, pending official requests by the US Government and approval from the Government of Niger.



USAGM has a requirement for a vendor to host, operate, and maintain FM broadcast transmitter systems in Niamey as well as other regions of Niger. This includes providing a climate controlled space with at least 2 meters of floor space available to host broadcast equipment systems. This climate-controlled space should be adjacent to a broadcast tower with access to reliable commercial electrical shore power and an adjacent space to host a 15 kVA standby electrical generator system. Location should have clear view of the Geostationary Satellite Belt to host both a 3.1 mtr C- Band and 1.8 mtr KU Band satellite antenna as well as a 1.2 mtr KU VSAT terminal. Vendor will have sufficient space on the adjacent broadcast tower in order to host a 4 bay FM antenna system.
