The vehicles 557 and 558 have reportedly left the BTS premises and are on their way to Qatar to join the first two trucks 555 and 556 that were displayed at IBC 2012.
The OB van constructed for Qatar TV, with the serial number 555, was shipped to the client immediately after display at IBC 2012. The OB van was accompanied by the auxiliary truck which was built at the same time, at the BTS facilities in Weiterstadt, Germany.
Now four weeks later an identical pair of OB van and auxiliary truck has been completed and has reportedly undergone a factory acceptance test. The vehicles 557 and 558 have reportedly left the BTS premises and are on their way to Qatar to join the first two trucks 555 and 556.
According to the company’s official release, among the highlights of the OB vans and auxiliary trucks is the patented drawer construction that allows for unrivalled working space in the van.
Following site acceptance, BTS will conduct technical training in Qatar to introduce the systems to the operators. After first trials, all four vehicles will reportedly be in use during a multitude of events around the occasion of the Qatar National Day on December 18.
