Medium and ShortWave Broadcast Systems:

LBA Technology designs and manufactures sophisticated antenna tuning units, multiplexers and array coupling systems for the low, medium, and high frequency radio frequency broadcast bands at power levels up to 1,000,000 watts. We supply towers and infrastructure equipment for omnidirectional and directional medium wave AM antenna systems for US and international broadcasters.  Our capabilities include broadband systems for IBOC and DRM digital broadcast modes.

We are the premier supplier of AM colocation isocouplersystems to allow wireless antennas on AM towers, and detuning systems to negate the impact of nearby radio and power transmission towers on MW radiators.

Worldwide design, furnish, install turnkey integration of complete transmission systems is available.

Navigation,Emergency & Military Systems:

LBA has a long history of providing solutions for users requiring efficient, broadband electrically short medium wave antennas. We provide such medium frequency transmitting antenna systems for navigation and location systems DGPS and NAVTEX, and for GMDSS shore transmitting stations. We make transportable MW transmitting stations for military and civilian use from man pack to C-130 flyable vehicles fielded by the US Army and British MOD.

We also design and manufacture custom rugged, roadworthy communications trailers typically configured with operator cabin, generator, fold-over tower and other operational accessories.

These systems have broad application in tactical and emergency communications, remote construction, and communications backup.

Testing & Electromagnetic Systems:

LBA Technology is your premier source for an expanding selection of world renowned test equipment. Our equipment supports digital broadcast TV, satellite, radio, CATV, antenna testing, EMC and R&D labs, and more. RF test equipment by LBA and our represented manufacturers is backed by more than 40 years of global LBA broadcast, wireless and Electromagnetic Compatibility experience.

We also manufacture EMFaraCage® faraday cages / custom RF and electromagnetic shielding enclosures. These portable tabletop shielding systems can be used in labs, classroom, production test areas – anywhere a quiet electromagnetic environment is needed.

LBA specialists supply room and whole building RF shielding systems and services, supply high performance RF shielding fabrics and paint and components, and perform RF interference site assessments and EMF surveys.

Our products include a growing line of clock and timing products. These advanced clocks permit atomic accuracy by referencing the GPS satellite system.
