About this file
This document is a Request for Quote (RFQ) issued by the Idaho Department of Administration, Division of Purchasing, on behalf of Idaho Public Television (IdahoPTV) for three (3) low power television translator systems, one (1) in the VHF and two (2) in the UHF television bands. The purpose is to replace end-of-life equipment that is no longer supported by the manufacturer, serving rural communities with educational programming and emergency alert system notifications. The translator systems must be ATSC 1.0/2.0 and 3.0 compatible, with frequency agile receivers and mask filters. Bidders must provide technical specifications for any "equal" items offered. The contract will be awarded to the responsive, responsible vendor with the lowest total cost. Delivery of the translators is required within thirty (30) days of the award to the address in Boise, Idaho, with specific delivery requirements outlined.
The RFQ specifies the technical performance requirements for the translator off-air receiver systems, including operating power, frequency ranges, transmission standards, input/output formats, and management capabilities. Warranty information and a 60-day acceptance period are also detailed. Pricing must be submitted electronically through the IPRO system, and the contract will be awarded based on the lowest total cost.
