Training
Practical courses in networking, AoIP and Wireshark, and on DHD, Studer and Calrec consoles.
With the BBC since 1983
Audio over IP training, validation and faultfinding for broadcasters
I help broadcast engineers understand, prove and repair audio networks. I teach networking, AoIP and Wireshark, I test AoIP installations before they go to air, and I find the fault when a network that should work does not.
What I do
Four kinds of work, all built on measuring what the network is really doing.
AoIP validation
Independent testing that an installation does what its design says.
AoIP faultfinding and diagnostics
Packet-level investigation of dropouts, clicks, sync loss and streams that will not connect.
DHD
Configuration, training and faultfinding for DHD mixing systems.
A working life in BBC engineering and training
I joined the BBC in 1983 and its training department in 1988. Since 2021 I have worked freelance, and I still teach for the BBC Academy and work with BBC Technical Operations and project teams.
