- Dielectric Adds OptiLoad External Heat Exchanger
Dielectric OptiLoad Heat Exchanger Dielectric is expanding its OptiLoad line. It plans to show a new external heat exchanger system at the NAB Show. It extends the capabilities of the OptiLoad platform by moving heat from RF loads outside of transmitter buildings. OptiLoad already included an internal heat exchanger, but traditionally the heat was discharged into the transmitter room, the company said. The new system moves the heat outside, which will be helpful particularly in warmer climates or in facilities where HVAC capacity is limited. And it means customers don’t have to design their own heat exchanger systems or integrate with transmitter cooling. The system uses a two-part architecture, with an indoor RF load unit connected via hoses to an outdoor heat exchanger. Its PLC architecture monitors RF presence, coolant temperature, pressure and system health. Pumps and fans are run only as needed for efficiency. The system includes safety interlocks that protect transmitters by shutting down operation if coolant pressure drops below threshold levels or if temperatures exceed operating limits. The OptiLoad family was introduced two years ago. It combines water column load technology with intelligent monitoring and closed-loop cooling. It expanded in 2025 with OptiLoad Light for lower-power TV systems and OptiLoad FM for radio applications.

Fox News host Mark Levin made an argument for President Donald Trump sending “specialized” troops into Iran on Saturday night during the latest episode of Life, Liberty & Levin — just a few hours after Trump recommended everyone watch his program. Levin said he has been hearing a lot about “boots on the ground” in Iran and how that goes against what Trump said during his 2024 presidential campaign. But Levin said that doesn’t ring a bell to him, saying “I don’t remember that in any campaign speech.” He then made his case for sending troops into Iran as Operation Epic Fury moves into its second month. Levin said there are “a lot of reasons” for it, but the main one is uranium. The U.S. military needs to go in and recover as much uranium from Iran as possible, because it could be used to make “dirty bombs” and missiles. “We’ve got to get the uranium,” Levin said. “If it cannot be destroyed, if it cannot be altered, we gotta get it.” Levin said it “wouldn’t take 300,000” soldiers to get the job done. He said he has been reading about Trump sending 2,000 troops from the Army’s 82nd Airborne Division and similar stories in the paper — and that makes a lot of sense to Levin. “He’s not talking about sending regular Army infantry in by the hundreds of thousands. The men he’s talking about, the units he’s talking about, they are specialized,” Levin said “And you know what else, I remember from my days in the Reagan administration, many of them are trained for a moment like this — to try and secure enriched uranium. Many have been trained for moments like this.” Levin shared his take about two hours after Trump gave him a shout-out on Truth Social. “Watch Mark Levin interview of Brilliant Marc Thiessen tonight at 8:00 P.M.” Trump posted. “Will discuss the importance of hitting Iran, HARD!!!” Thiessen — a foreign policy columnist at the Washington Post and a Fox News contributor — made a similar argument to Levin when he joined the show. He said the “easiest way” for Iran to retaliate against the U.S. would be for it to give its uranium to Al Qaeda after the war, which could then be used to attack Americans.

Kennedy Jr. said everyone gets it wrong when it comes to President Donald Trump’s personality — including himself, at first. Kennedy talked about the president and the perception he is a heartless egomaniac during an interview at the Conservative Political Action Conference on Saturday. “President Trump is exactly the opposite of everything that I believed him to be. I admit I basically drank the Kool-Aid that he was this bombastic narcissist that didn’t read books [and] was ill-informed. And now I know the exact opposite,” Kennedy said. “He’s the opposite of a narcissist, he’s an empath.” Kennedy pointed to the Russia-Ukraine War as a clear example of what he was talking about. He said Trump constantly talks about the number of fatalities in the war because it bothers him to his core. “You will not hear any Democrat ever talk about that,” Kennedy told the Texas crowd. He then marveled at Trump’s “encyclopedic, molecular knowledge” on a number of subjects, from music to Broadway musicals to pro wrestling. Kennedy added Trump “understands the use of power better than probably any president that we’ve had at least since Roosevelt and maybe in American history.” He did not specify whether he was talking about Theodore Roosevelt or Franklin Delano Roosevelt. His comments echo what Bill Maher said about the president last year, following their much-publicized dinner together at the White House. Maher said “private Trump” is much different than he appears in public and is a great listener. Kennedy’s comments also come as Trump opted not to attend CPAC for the first time in a decade. Beyond Kennedy, FCC Chair Brendan Carr was one of the big MAGA names to appear at this year’s event. Carr told the crowd on Friday that Trump was “winning” his personal war against the mainstream press. “When he ran for office, he ran directly at the fake news media,” said Carr. “He said, ‘You don’t get to decide what we say, what we think, how we’re gonna vote inside the voting booth.’ President Trump took on the fake news media, and President Trump is winning.” “Look at the results so far,” he continued. “PBS — defunded. NPR — defunded. Joy Reid — gone from MSNBC. Sleepy-eyed Chuck Todd — gone. Jim Acosta — gone. John Dickerson — gone.” Watch Kennedy above, via Right Side Broadcasting Network’s YouTube account.The post ‘He’s the Opposite of a Narcissist’: RFK Jr. Admits He’s Done a Complete 180 on ‘Empath’ Trump… [TheTopNews] Read More.12 hours ago
- ‘Why Do They Root Against Our Country?!’ Sean Hannity Goes Off on Mainstream... Fox News star Sean Hannity went off on several mainstream outlets for their coverage of the Iran war, which he said has been far too pessimistic — and makes it seem like the “corrupt” outlets are actively cheering for the USA and President Donald Trump to fail. Hannity voiced his frustration while guest hosting Patrick Bet-David’s podcast on Friday. “Why do they root against our country?!” Hannity asked after throwing his glasses down on the table. “Whether you agree with Operation Midnight Hammer, this Epic Fury, or not, when American treasures in harm’s way, for crying out loud, can you just hope — even if you disagree — that it works?” Hannity listed three examples that especially bothered him. He pointed to a cover of The Economist that read “Advantage Iran,” a story in Foreign Policy titled “Why U.S. Victory in Iran Would Be Bad for Washington — and the World,” and a Politico report titled “Thought Iraq Was a Blunder? Iran Is Far Worse.” Those three stories were textbook examples of why Americans are “turning off legacy media,” he said. Hannity, on the other hand, has been supportive of the Iran war on his Fox News show. He also vented last week that Trump’s critics are pushing “puppet tropes” that the president was prodded into attacking Iran by Israel; Hannity said those gripes are already getting “quite old.” Trump recently shot down those complaints as well, saying “If anything, I might’ve forced Israel’s hand.” Hannity’s remarks came a month after Operation Epic Fury started with joint U.S. and Israeli strikes that killed Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei; dozens of other leaders from Iran’s theocratic regime have been eliminated since then. The PBD Podcast co-host Vincent Oshana completely agreed with Hannity’s assessment on Friday, saying “it’s almost as if cheering against America has gotten cool.” Watch above via YouTube.The post ‘Why Do They Root Against Our Country?!’ Sean Hannity Goes Off on Mainstream Media Coverage of Iran War first appeared on Mediaite.

- Trump Sends Thousands of Troops to Middle East Despite ‘Very Strong Talks’ T...U.S. Central Command announced Saturday that 3,500 sailors and Marines have arrived in the Middle East, even as President Donald Trump claimed this week that “very strong talks” were underway to end the war in Iran. Another sign of escalating tensions happened Saturday as the Iran-backed Houthis in Yemen entered the conflict by launching an “unsuccessful” missile attack on Israel. According to The New York Times, “There has long been concern that if the Houthis were to enter the war, the group could seek to disrupt global shipping through theRed Sea, which it has done previously by firing on passing ships.” “Meanwhile…at least 10 U.S.. Service members have been reported injured after an Iranian attack on a U.S. Base in Saudi Arabia,” reported CNN’s Omar Jimenez. Trump told a Saudi-based investment conference in Miami on Friday, “We have another 3,554 targets left, and that will be done pretty quickly,” adding, “I’m not saying — It’s sort of finished, but it’s not finished. It’s got to be finished.” CNN’s Julia Benbrook reported on Saturday evening from Florida, “Trump also said that the Iranians are begging to make a deal right now. Some of the other featured speakers at that conference included Trump’s son-in-law, Jared Kushner, as well as Middle East envoy Steve Witkoff, who of course played a crucial role here. They led multiple rounds of talks prior to those first strikes, and Witkoff did say that he’s hopeful that there will be some conversations this week.” Benbrook noted that Trump jokingly referred to the crucial Strait of Hormuz as the “Strait of Trump,” where 20% of the world’s oil passes through. “That has been at a near complete halt,” Benbrook said. “But he has demanded that that waterway fully reopen, or that the United States would obliterate Iran’s power plants. He had set a date. He then pushed that for another 10 days. It sets at April 6th right now.” Watch the clip above via CNN.The post Trump Sends Thousands of Troops to Middle East Despite ‘Very Strong Talks’ To End Iran War first appeared on Mediaite.

- Trump Calls for Republicans Who Oppose Ending Filibuster to ‘Be Exposed to the...
(Tom Williams/CQ Roll Call via AP Images) President Donald Trump is threatening to take action against his fellow Republicans if they don’t get on board to end the Senate filibuster and reopen the government. Trump wrote on Truth Social Saturday, “It is time for the Senate Filibuster to END. Those weak and ineffective Republicans Senators that stand in the way of this should be exposed to the public. The Democrats are CRAZY!” Trump has been frustrated by Democrats’ refusal to end the partial government shutdown because they want assurances over reforms within the Department of Homeland Security and ICE. Ending the filibuster would eliminate the 60-vote threshold required to pass most legislation, and would allow the majority Republican party to pass bills with a “simple majority” of just 51 votes. It would be one way for Republicans to immediately end the month-long shutdown and easily pass other Trump-approved legislation like the SAVE America Act. Trump has been complaining about the filibuster ever since his first term. On Thursday night, he called for Republicans to invoke the “Nuclear Option.” “It is now time for the Republicans to play their ‘TRUMP CARD,’ and go for what is called the Nuclear Option — Get rid of the Filibuster, and get rid of it, NOW!” Trump wrote. A majority of Republicans have resisted calls to eliminate the filibuster because it would also allow the other side to get by with a simple majority if and when Republicans are once again in the minority. The filibuster encourages compromise, but as Trump has shown through his myriad executive orders, he prefers to get his way quickly and not through dealmaking. Earlier this week, Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) confirmed that Trump killed a plan formulated by he formulated with Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) to quickly restore funding to TSA agents. The plan would have required making a deal with the Democrats, which Trump rejected outright. The partial shutdown shows no signs of abating anytime soon. A short-term funding bill approved by the House on Friday was deemed “dead on arrival” by Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY). In a statement, Schumer said Democrats “will not give a blank check to Trump’s lawless and deadly immigration militia without reforms.” In addition, the House has recessed for its two-week Easter holiday, leaving discussions until at least the week of April 13.The post Trump Calls for Republicans Who Oppose Ending… [TheTopNews] Read More.13 hours ago
