"We've increased our manufacturing capability in order to meet the growing demand for our complete line of broadcast products," said Kinsley Jones, business unit manager, Andrew broadcast products. "In the U.S., the large number of stations transitioning to digital television means manufacturers must add capacity to meet the demand. The recent acquisition of Passive Power Products Inc. gives us the full range of DTV-ready products to provide complete RF systems to our customers." The addition of the Tinley Park facility adds needed capacity to manufacture broadcast components to meet customer schedules.



You don't build excess capacity for nothing. That's really good news.

I've taken a full position and am waiting for the Street to catch up.

From Andrew's website I note there are quite a few trade shows coming up:

The big one is in New Orleans in July.

For a glimpse at ANDW's business strategy:

1998 CEO's report:

NEW MARKETS will include those created by the allocation of radio frequency spectrum for wireless local loop (WLL), local multipoint distribution services (LMDS), and multichannel multipoint distribution services (MMDS). Development of the Internet fiber optic backbone networks has led to an opportunity for a new equipment shelter for use in these systems. The global roll-out of high definition, or digital television, has begun, with exciting promise of growth. In the U.S., more than 1500 stations are scheduled to be on the air with digital programming by 2003. Obviously, new products and markets will be added only if the business will enhance long term stockholder value and leverage our strengths.
