Hi Eric...
I've pretty much struck out trying to find an installation "BSP" for that
amplifier based on it's "KS" number. Who knows where all those old books
go?
Do you have to replace that same unit with a like unit? Or could you
subsitute another product? If so, visit M.W. Persons (www.mwpersons.com) -
they seem to specialize in "stuff" for the radio broadcast industry. Or
look around at Tellabs (www.tellabs.com) or Westell (www.westell.com). Bear
in mind, the days of analog transmission facilities are back there in the
past somewhere, but some old heads may still be lurking with just the info
you need!
Good Luck!

Is there anyone out there that is familiar with a Western Electric
KS-20159-L2 Equalizer Amplifier and knows how to connect it, or at
least can give me some general information on putting audio down dry
pairs? We are a college radio station and use dry pairs sometimes to
send audio back to our studio for remote broadcasts. Unfortunately,
our setup had very muddy-sounding audio (almost no high end) and after
testing, its frequency response was anything but flat. I've been
assured by our telecom people that the dry pair itself is
unconditioned. The equalizing amplifier installed was a Western
Electric KS-20159-L2. My first question is should this unit be
installed at the transmitting or receiving end. When I found it, it
was installed at the transmitting end, but I've been told that's
incorrect.
Unfortunately, during troubleshooting, I made the mistake of
disconnecting the Equalizer Amp to substitute another one in (that
ended up not working at all!) and when I went to reconnect the Western
Electric one, discovered that none of the ~20 screw terminals on it are
labeled! Can anyone provide a manual/tell me what wires go to what
terminals? Any other dry pair advice?
Thank you,
