PHOENIX, Sept. 6 / -- Antenna Technology Communications Inc., a provider of commercial satellite communications systems, today announced that it has completed its contract to design, integrate and install a complete uplink system for another Spanish-Language channel, Canal 28. Canal 28 provides regional programming from Chihuahua Mexico to Canal Sur -- one of the largest regional Latin American content providers serving the United States. ATCi provided a fully redundant, state-of-the-art uplink that will enable Mexicans in the United States from regions outside Chihuahua to watch their favorite programming from their hometowns, cities and regions of origin.

ATCi's uplink included the entire RF equipment package, which featured: antenna, amplifiers, encoders, modems and as well as custom design, integration and implementation dependent upon customer requirements.

"We continue in our ongoing commitment to support the growth of satellite broadcasting throughout both Latin America and the Hispanic market in North America with the recent expansion of our uplink system offerings."
