Abstract : In this paper, an attempt is made to investigate the performance of a television broadcast transmitter. This study focuses on Harris transmitter since our case study is based on Lagos Television 8. This type of transmitter uses the inductive output tube and discussions will be based on the various components that enhances the mode of operation, the differences between the analog and digital operation, and represent the log book reading obtained from the Harris transmitter installed in LTV 8 for six month in order to calculate the efficiency of the transmitter. Deductions of various charts and graphs to illustrate the performance rating and efficiency and also state some maintenance and troubleshooting measures of the transmitter will be presented. This study will equally highlight the limitation of an analogue transmitter compared to a digital transmitter. Digital information takes up less bandwidth than an analogue signal and greatly reduces interference and other problems, in terms of picture and sound quality.
