With over 175 Wysong Systems installed today Wysong has established themselves as an industry leader in Electronic News Gathering Systems (E.N.G.) worldwide and have been pioneers from it’s inception over 20 years ago. Wysong Enterprises has completed more Electronic News Gathering helicopter installations than any other company ranging  from Denver CO, Los Angeles CA, New York NY, Tampa FL, Norfolk VA, San Antonio TX to Puerto Rico and many others as well. We constantly use our cutting edge technology to make the most advanced Data Gathering Equipment from around the world available for your helicopter’s use.

From concept to completion, Wysong specializes in Airborne News Gathering Systems for any make or model of aircraft in the air. Wysong also specializes in the design, manufacturing, installation, and service of quality state of the art Electronic News Gathering Systems.

Wysong Enterprises performs upgrades, custom system design and implementation of new technologies such as COFDM Modulation for microwave, and CC1R601 (SDI) for Onboard Digital Video. Wysong also integrated the very first E.N.G. COFDM System in May of 2000. Our technicians are experts in installations of camera gimbals, switchers, monitors, microwave links and support equipment. The latest systems we provide are now incorporating High Definition microwave and video. Wysong Enterprises was the first completion center to design and install a High Definition system on a rotorcraft in March of 2004. These systems provide the viewer with a high resolution picture of superior, unsurpassed quality and are the latest technologies to be utilized in the airborne Electronic News Gathering (E.N.G.) industry today.

We also introduce the MuteMaster which eliminates delays when reporting live and listening to your own audio on air. Whatever your requirements may be, Wysong can design an Electronic News Gathering System to meet your specific needs.

A Wysong Enterprises Electronic News Gathering System typically utilizes the following Equipment:

• Externally mounted, gyro-stabilized camera ball, normally mounted on the nose and housing an 1120mm zoom camera.
• Airborne microwave system, including analog, COFDM, and/or HD microwave transmitter and receiver (allowing “bounce shots”), utilizing an antenna pod system with a high-gain antenna as well as an omni and down look antenna. The high-gain antenna is 360 degrees maneuverable and uses a GPS receiver for automatic tracking.
• Video interfacing equipment, which consists of multiple camera and monitoring capabilities. All camera outputs are able to be individually selected for preview or live transmission. The video system is synchronized for clean switching and features remote selection- allowing even the pilot to select a video source. The equipment package also includes television receivers to monitor the actual broadcast signal, plus a broadcast quality videotape recorder to record or playback audio & video.
• Audio interfacing equipment-a sophisticated package which interconnects the helicopter avionics package with the Electronic News Gathering System. This permits the crew to report over the microwave link, communicate over FM radio and use the intercom system and the avionics.

Robb Case, who flies Chopper 4 for WCMH-TV, an NBC affiliate in Columbus, Ohio, says that the equipment installed on their aircraft by Wysong Enterprises is the best combination of avionics and television gear yet. He speaks with authority too. Case has piloted E.N.G. flights since 1984. WCMH was voted “best news operation” in Ohio by the Associated Press, which Case says wouldn’t have been possible without Wysong’s equipment.
