Broadcast Devices PCC-300 Broadcast Devices Inc. is offering the PCC-300 3 Switch Combiner Controller, which it describes as an SNMP-enabled control platform intended to simplify and safeguard RF switching in high-power dual-cabinet transmitter systems that use hybrid power combiners. “Modern FM and television transmitters frequently combine the output of two final amplifier cabinets to achieve higher power levels,” it notes. “In these systems, reliable and repeatable control of motorized RF switches or switchless combiners is critical when transitioning between combined operation and single-cabinet service modes.” BDI said the PCC-300 addresses this by providing centralized control, interlock management and status monitoring for up to three motorized RF switches in a 1 RU chassis. An optional redundant power configuration is available for mission-critical sites requiring increased system availability. “The PCC-300 supports four standard operating modes commonly required in combiner installations: Transmitters A + B to Air; Transmitter A to Air with Transmitter B to Test Load; Transmitter B to Air with Transmitter A to Test Load; and Transmitters A + B to Test Load,” BDI said. “Built-in interlock sequencing and dedicated ‘RF Safe’ inputs ensure switch movement occurs only under safe operating conditions, helping protect RF switches and transmission equipment during maintenance or fault conditions.” It works with motorized RF transfer switches from major manufacturers and offers optional factory-fabricated control cables to simplify installation. For control and monitoring, the unit includes Ethernet with SNMPv2 agent support, a supplied SNMP MIB and a free Windows graphical user interface. It provides GPIO and dry-contact interfaces for integration with legacy remote control systems and local panels. It is available from BDI dealers.

Screenshot The MAGA base has rushed to the defense of NBA player Jaden Ivey after he was release following a series of controversial rants about religion. Over the last few days, Ivey posted a handful of lengthy rants on Instagram. Each video was over half an hour, and the rants largely dealt with topics involving religion. In one, Ivey slammed the NBA for celebrating LGBTQ pride and claimed the league was embracing “unrighteousness.” On Monday afternoon, the Chicago Bulls — who traded for Ivey in February — announced that he had been waived from the team. He was shut down for the season days earlier due to injury. pic.twitter.com/nV6zlJ0yOi — Chicago Bulls (@chicagobulls) March 30, 2026 Conservative Christians were quick to defend Ivey online and accuse the NBA of discrimination. OutKick’s Riley Gaines declared herself a “Jaden Ivey fan” after his release. “We live in a world that hates Christ and those who believe in Him, but that’s to be expected,” Gaines said. “Just as He was persecuted, so will we be. Consider me a Jaden Ivey fan.” We live in a world that hates Christ and those who believe in Him, but that's to be expected. Just as He was persecuted, so will we be. Consider me a Jaden Ivey fan. — Riley Gaines (@Riley_Gaines_) March 31, 2026 Sean Davis, co-founder of The Federalist, claimed Ivey was “fired” for “being Christian.” “The conduct they are claiming is detrimental is Christianity,” he said. “They fired Jaden Ivey for being Christian. “Worth noting the Bulls didn’t fire Ronnie Brewer after he was arrested for DUI. Or Joakim Noah after he was arrested for possession of drugs. When Jameson Curry was arrested for public urination and then resisted arrest, the Bulls suspended him for one game, but also refused to fire him for his conduct. Christianity is apparently where the Chicago Bulls draw the line,” added Davis. Countless others jumped on the Bulls’ tweet. You should be ashamed of yourselves. https://t.co/Eoh55Mowyy — Kevin Sorbo (@ksorbs) March 31, 2026 We need to be VERY clear. The @chicagobulls are kicking Jaden Ivey off the team for being an out and open Christian who lived out his faith by opposing @NBA LGBTQ+ Pride events. EVERY single NBA player needs to speak up for @JadensIV now or their religious freedom could be next. https://t.co/kzs7u28CA5… [TheTopNews] Read More.2 hours ago - AFP, Getty Images Removed ‘Unflattering’ Photo of Karoline Leavitt After Whi...
AP Photo/Alex Brandon AFP and Getty Images removed an unflattering photo of White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt from their image libraries after being made aware that the White House was unhappy. According to Oliver Darcy’s Status newsletter, the photo – taken by AFP photographer Andrew Caballero-Reynolds and depicting Leavitt with her son next to a turkey at the White House on Thanksgiving – was removed after AFP was made aware that the White House was displeased with the image. After being removed from AFP’s library, it was then automatically removed from Getty Images, effectively wiping the photo from existence. AFP Director of Communications Gregoire Lemarchand confirmed in a statement that the photo was removed after the agency was “made aware” of the White House’s displeasure. Lemarchand insisted, however, that the decision to remove the photo was “an internal editorial one, based on our standard quality and selection criteria,” and not the result of pressure from the White House. “While we were made aware that White House staff found the photo unflattering, we want to be clear that there was no formal request to remove it, nor was there any external pressure involved,” Lemarchand told Status. He added, “During high-volume events like White House briefings, our desk often receives a large influx of photos directly from the photographer’s camera, which are moved quickly by the editor on duty to ensure timely delivery… Upon a subsequent review of the day’s production, our editor-in-chief determined that this specific image did not meet our editorial standards. The angle was poor and, more importantly, we already had a selection of superior images from the same event available on the wire.” Ironically, after news of the photo’s removal was reported on Tuesday, the image went viral on social media, where it received thousands of likes and shares.

LEFT: The New York Times building (Beata Zawrzel/NurPhoto via AP) RIGHT: Nick Fuentes (Screenshot) The New York Times published the dubious claim that the term “J-pilled” is “far-right slang for skepticism of Israeli influence” on Monday in a news story about the Conservative Political Action Conference written by Nathan Taylor Pemberton. “As the first day of the Conservative Political Action Conference wound to a close, the audience inside the airplane-hangar-size ballroom had dwindled as Nick Shirley, the headline speaker, mumbled his remarks. Mr. Shirley, a 23-year-old content creator and recently minted right-wing celebrity, had been tapped by the conference’s organizers to bring a youthful jolt of energy to the proceedings. But youths themselves, and their conservative energy, were nowhere to be seen among the rows of empty chairs, as Mr. Shirley made halting reference to Theodore Roosevelt’s ‘Man in the Arena’ speech,” wrote Pemberton. “Just outside the hall, 20-somethings in rumpled suits were gathered in clusters, debating the merits of a ground invasion in Iran, the conservative backlash against those who were ‘J-pilled’ (far-right slang for skepticism of Israeli influence), the backbreaking costs of American life, and what they saw as the slow demise of the Trump era.” Pemberton went on to describe Nick Fuentes as a “27-year-old white nationalist known for making racist and antisemitic remarks,” who “has become a pariah within the conservative movement for, among other reasons, his recent declaration that young conservatives should express their displeasure with Mr. Trump’s military strikes on Iran by voting for Democrats.” Fuentes is a Holocaust denier who has submitted that “Hitler was awesome,” “a lot of women want to be raped,” and “Blacks need to be imprisoned for the most part.” The curious assertion that “J-pilled” referred to skepticism of Israel rather than anti-Semitism (hence the “J”) caught the attention of some observers online. “How did multiple @nytimes editors look at this story and not ask what the ‘J’ stood for?” wondered Jewish Insider executive editor Melissa Weiss. “Here’s a hint: It isn’t ‘Israel.'” How did multiple @nytimes editors look at this story and not ask what the “J” stood for?
