Active and full
of ideas:
A successful climb
TiborPosta is founderandmajorityownerofP-SAT.Anythingand
everything anantenna installerwouldneed, includingfiberopticLNBs
fromGlobalInvacom, canbe found inhis shop.
Anyone,whether it’s amanufacturer
or a dealer, who has something to sell
has the same problem: how do you
win new customers? What good is the
best p oduct if no one knows about it?
What use are all those sensational of-
fers if no one is aware of them? How
do youmake your potential customers
notice your products? Every success-
ful manufacturer and every success-
ful dealer managed to find their own
solution. A wholesaler that came up
with an especially interesting solution
to this problem is P-SAT in Hun-
gary.The founder and operator of
this company, Tibor Posta, gave us
some insight into how he solved the
problem ofwinning new customers.
But first we wanted to learn more
about Posta’s Company P-SAT. Obvi-
ously, the “P” in P-SAT stands for his
name Posta. “The company P-SAT Kft
was founded in 2002”, explains Tibor
Posta. Before that time he was an an-
tenna installer. “In 1991 I started out
erecting TV antennas”, he remembers,
“Thiswas at the same timewhenHun-
gary started their second TV chan-
nel via UHF.” His first customer was
his parents. And then it happened as
it usually does: friends and relatives
would call and Tibor Posta ended up
with more and more work to do. Back
then he lived in eastern Hungary and

Slovakian receiver manufacturer AB-
COM has found its firm place in the
Central European market within an
impressively short time. Based in the
little-known town of Topolcany, some
100 km east of the Slovakian capital
Bratislava, the company was founded
by Juraj Masaryk in the year 2002. In
the beginning the business acted as a
wholesaler for satellite components and
it was only in the year 2010 that AB-
COMEuropewasestablishedasan inde-
pendent receivermanufacturer.AB-COM
as a wholesaler continues to prosper
alongsideand is theofficialdistributorof

first DVB-T2 receiver,” he hints at some
interestingplans for the future. The only
question that still begs an answer is in
which countries DVB-T2 will actually be
launched. As a matter of fact, nobody
knowsat this stagebecauseevery coun-
try will decide independently whether
andhow to introduceDVB-T2, and these
decisions are not always easy to under-
stand.
The LinkBox series features another
range of receivers: “Here we are talk-
ing about boxes we produce for Czech
pay TV provider Skylink,which uses the
Irdetoencryption system.”These receiv-
ers are particularly inexpensive, Juraj
says and adds “we’d be ready to offer
thisbox toother contentprovidersusing
Irdeto aswell.” If you need further proof
for AB-COM’s orientation towards future
consumerapplicationsyouneednot look
further than to the brand newAB 3DBox
receiver line which features HD receiv-
erswith integrated3D TV converter. The
newly developed 3D boxes are sched-
uled tohit themarket in the
of 2012. In the previous issue of TELE-
satellite we presented the stand-alone
3D converter, whose software will also
be used in theAB 3DBox receivers.
The recently introduced AB-COM
CryptoBox receiver line from AB-COM
has a very special treat in store: As ex-
tremely good-value receivers targeted
towards the pay TVmarket, all receivers
from this line include CA and a CImod-
ule. The truly special feature, however,
is a USB interfacewhich can be used to
connectaWiFidongle, JurajMasarykex-
plains.He knows that fully cabled Ether-
net networks are gradually disappearing
and that almost every household these
days has set up aWiFi network. Sowhy
not add WiFi capability to satellite re-
ceivers? “These boxes are based on the
606 chipset which is particularly
fast,” Juraj adds.
Thanks to all these achievements AB-
COMEuropehas taken only two years to
become a significant player that is ac-
tively tapping into various product seg-
ments. For Juraj Masaryk, innovation is
the key to success and a cornerstone
for a successful expansion path. Even
the company name has turned out to be
wisely chosen: The acronymAB appears
onallnewbrandnameswheneveranew
products series is launched. This way
AB-COM is able to grow and prosper for
a long time to come!

A small family business hasmanaged
to become one of themostwell-known
names in theNorthAmerican cable and
satellite TV signal analyzermarket. It’s
the perfect reason for us to go and pay
Applied Instruments in Indianapolis, In-
diana, USA, a visit only to find out that
the company is expanding into the in-
ternational market with its products
that areMade inUSA.
Who’s behind Applied Instruments?
It really is a family-owned business.
It was founded exactly 25 years ago
in 1986 by Doyle Haywood, the father
of the current General Manager Tom
Haywood. His son Scott Haywood also
works for the company as a salesman-
ager.
Whenwe lookbackatwhen itallstart-
ed, we find out that there’s even more
history behind the company’s founder
Doyle Haywood: he founded a compa-
ny back in 1973 that produced signal
analyzers for cable TV. In 1979 he sold
that company to a large corporation.
But when he came up with the idea to
develop clean reliable test signal gen-
erators for CATV, he quickly founded a
new company:Applied Instruments.His
son TomHaywood explains to uswhere
the name came from: “We apply a solu-
tion to every problem and provide the
instruments just for that purpose – Ap-
plied Instruments.”
The new company originally began
with threeemployees,oneofwhomwas
David Poelstra, a research engineer
that worked together with Doyle Hay-
wood in the first company. In1990 they
released their first successful prod-
uct to the market – a cable TV signal
analyzer that not only was easy to use
butwas also affordable.Over the years
other analyzers appeared. “In order to
test long cable lengths, we produced a
Return PathTestSet”, remembersGen-
eralManagerTomHaywood, “It consist-
ed of a CW Test Signal Generator that
was attached to one end of the long
cable and a receiver at the other end.
In this way we could check the quality
of the cable.”
In 1994 MMDS (Multichannel Multi-
point Distribution Service), also known
as wireless cable, gained widespread
use primarily in rural areas and Ap-
plied Instruments was there provid-
ing the appropriate signal analyzers.
From here the path to satellite signal
ments TomHaywood.
TheSatBuddyquicklybecame known
and loved by North American satellite
installers and over the years was con-
sistently improved and fitted with new
features. Scott Haywood, Tom Hay-
wood’s son and third generation in the
company, is a sales manager at Ap-
plied Instrumentsand tellsusabout the
newest Buddy version: “It’s the Super
Buddy 29 and in addition to letting you
measure satellite TV signals, it can also
be used to install theWildblue Internet-
via–satellite service. These LNBs re-
quire 29 volts that the Super Buddy 29
can supply, hence the ‘29’ in themodel
name.”
Tom Haywood, the current General
Manager, is actually a construction en-
gineer but always enjoyed lending a
hand at the company. In 1996 he de-
cided toworkexclusively forhis father’s
company: “The creation of solutions
and the ergonomic prod
ways fascinated me”, he

not all that much different from being
who must also be
em solver.”
When hismother, thewife of founder
Doyle Haywood, began to have health
issues, his father decided to leave the
company and sell50% ownership of the
company to Tom Haywood. The other
50%was sold to JeffHaas.Bothare en-
thusiastic with the opportunity to fur-
ther expand Applied Instruments.
But the company doesn’t onlymanu-
facture signal analyzers that are used
at the receiving end. An especially in-
teresting highlight is the Noise Power
Ratio testing product that manufactur-
ers of amplifiers, optical transmitters
and receivers, and other active devices
can use to test the operating range of
their products. It consists of a noise
generator that sends its signal to the
receiver to be tested and a correspond-
ing signal analyzer that measures the
output signal from the tested receiver.
“Our NS-3 Broadband Noise Genera-
tor is often used by receiver manufac-
to noise testing”, comments Tom Hay-
wood.
General Manager Tom Haywood ex-
plains to us their product palette: “80%
of our sales are made up of reception
signal analyzers, 10% are test genera-
torswith the remaining10%madeupof
complete systems consisting of signal
generators and signal analyzers.” And
as far as sales figures go, he tells us,
“For the past several years sales have
been stable at about US$ 5.5 million
but for2012we are expecting roughly a
10% increase.”
Where will this increase come from?
Sales Manager Scott Haywood has a
few answers for us: “We are currently
developinga signalanalyzer forDVB-S2
thatwill become available in the fourth
quarter of 2011. We are also working
on terrestrial signal analyzers for ATSC
and QAM that will appear in the first
quarter of 2012.”
Applied Instruments is looking at sat-
ellite signal analyzers as their way of
expanding into the export market. “Up
il now, 95% of our products have
n shipped to North America, that is
USA and Canada,with only the remain-
ing 5% being shipped abroad to coun-
tries like Switzerland, Sweden, Great
Britain, Belgium as well as Australia”,
comments ScottHaywood.
But this is what will change in the
company’s 25th year of operation: “We
are actively looking for competent dis-
tributors in Europe, The Middle East
and Asia.” It is critical for Applied In-
struments tofind technically competent
partners: “Our products are not throw-
away products; they are solidly built
and can be repaired if the needwere to
ever arise.” Technical customer service
is actually quite important when deal-
ingwith products like signal analyzers;
professional installers use signal ana-
lyzers on a daily basis and can thereby
document a proper installation. Reli-
ability and helpwith technical problems
are excellent reasons why an installer
wouldwant to choose a quality product
from amanufacturer that he knowswill
support him later on.
“We produce everything ourselves”,
comments General Manager Tom Hay-
wood referring to his nine production
employees, “Our R&D team consists of
AmotorizedC-banddishon thewall
aswell asnumerousotherdishes
on the roof are allusedbyApplied
Instruments todevelopand test their

seven engineers, the repair team is made up of five en-
gineers and our technical customer service has four en-
gineers.” On top of that are three employees in admin-
istration as well as two sales managers so that a total of
30 employees make up Applied Instruments all of which
work in an 11,000 Sq-foot office/production facility lo-
cated in an industrial zone southeast of Indianapolis.
After 25 successful years, Applied Instruments is
ready to plow into the i
thusiasm of the engineer
customers have for their signal analyzers provides this
company with an excellent chance to grow in the world
market over the next 25 years with their robust signal
analyzers.

“I’m especially interested in thesatelliteDXer reports”, reveals
Scott, “It shows theenthusiasm theyhave for theirhobby.” It’s
an enthusiasm thatScott shares and that canbe readily seen in
thecompany’s signal analyzers.

MEGASAT wholesaler and
distributor rises from
the heart of Germany
Wholesaler and Manufacturer MEGASAT, Germany
MEGASAT founder
andGeneralManager
SvenMelzer likes to
stayup todatewith
TELE-satellite.
Where is it, themuch-proclaimedheartofGermany?Howdoyoude-
fine its actual location? Sven Melzer, founder and General Manager
of satellite wholesaler and distributor MEGASAT has a rather prag-
matic approach to those questions. “We are right in the heart of
Germany,”andby thathe simplymeans the regionhe’sathome.
The name of the place is Niederlauer, which is a small town
north of Schweinfurt in northern Bavaria. As a matter of fact,
if you look up Niederlauer in Google Maps the marker pops up
right in the centre of Germany.
