R.L. Drake Company Overview
  • Drake has been a manufacturer of electronic
    communications equipment since 1943. Drake
    produces products and solutions for cable
    television systems, ADA assistive listening,
    video signal distribution, and digital television
    reception. Drake and Dracom brand products are
    utilized and available worldwide.
  • The R.L. Drake Company is a privately held
    company located in Franklin, Ohio. The company
    was founded in 1943 by Robert L. Drake, a young
    engineer with a significant background in radio
    design for major industry concerns. The company
    began as a manufacturer of low pass and high pass
    filters for the government and amateur radio
    market. After World War II, the company applied
    its engineering expertise to the consumer market
    and started producing amateur or "ham" radio
    transmitters and receivers.
  • The preferred product of many amateur radio buffs
    and celebrities, the company's amateur products
    soon became known as the "Cadillacs" of the ham
    radio field. Many of the Drake receivers,
    transmitters, and transceivers manufactured in
    the fifties, sixties, and seventies are still in
    active use today. Several of the products, built
    in "limited" quantities, are considered very
    "rare". Collectors and Drake aficionados will
    often pay twice the original market price to add
    such an item to their "Ham Shack".
  • Drake continued to search for new areas to apply
    its engineering expertise, even as they expanded
    their product line with marine radios and other
    reception hardware. In 1981, Drake investigated
    the then semi-hobbyist field of home satellite
    reception equipment. Drake engineers, under the
    leadership of founder's son Peter Drake,
    completed a prototype satellite receiver in just
    four months.
  • The demand for satellite receivers in the 1980's
    was overwhelming, convincing Drake to concentrate
    primarily on the development and manufacture of
    satellite communications equipment. This
    development led to the manufacture of commercial
    satellite receivers and distribution equipment,
    as well as reception equipment for the
    international marketplace.
  • In 1997 Drake brought its expertise in the RF
    communications field to the assistive listening
    market. The transmitter/personal receiver system
    was put into production to help the hearing
    impaired participate in venues where traditional
    hearing aids amplify all sounds, causing
    distortion or reverberation of the source audio.

R.L. Drake Company Overview
  • In 1998 Drake introduced video modulators in
    miniature. Having produced 19 inch rack equipment
    for the CATV industry for several years, Drake
    sensed the need for smaller equipment, as cable
    "head-ends" are typically remote buildings where
    space is a commodity. The VMM-600, one of the
    video mini-modulators, is a high quality fixed
    channel heterodyne audio/video modulator that
    allows one to twelve units to be mounted in the
    same amount of rack space required by two
    standard size units.
  • In 2001, Drake took the mini-modular system one
    step further and introduced a complete line of
    digital head-end products. The mini-modular
    approach offers the ability to QAM modulate
    digital signals onto a cable system using MPEG
    video, QPSK satellite signals, or off-air ATSC
    transmissions. Mini-modules are offered that can
    translate off-air ATSC signals to cable in either
    ATSC or QAM format.
  • 2002, marked the introduction of the SCT860
    transcoder . The SCT860, satellite to cable
    transcoder, places the digital satellite
    receiver, QAM remodulator, and channel
    upconverter in a single convenient modular
    package for QAM delivery of HITS-QT or DISH
    Network programming. An RS232 data connection
    allows the entire system to be remotely
    controlled by a personal computer.
  • In 2004, several new and innovative products were
    added to the digital transcoder product line. The
    DQT860 provides a means of multiplexing two off
    air 8VSB signals or QAM signals into a single
    CATV channel for a CATV system. The MQM860 will
    multiplex two ATSC ASI transport streams in the
    same manner as the DQT860. The QQP860 is
    essentially a single input DQT860 and is used for
    DOCSIS data applications where no change in data
    rate or timing is desired.
  • In 2005, the SCT860 digital transcoder was
    expanded to the SCT1860, SCT2860, SCT3860,
    SCT4860. These four models allow transcoding of
    QPSK or 8PSK satellite signals, from 16 QAM to
    1024 QAM output.
  • Presently, Drake manufactures a wide range of
    video distribution equipment and cable television
    equipment in both the standard rack size and the
    mini-modules. Drake also builds complete CATV
    head-ends, equipment racks of digital and analog
    equipment cabled, and tested, ready to connect to
    a power source and a satellite signal.
  • The assistive listening systems for consumer and
    commercial markets are also manufactured at the
    Franklin, Ohio plant. Drake products are
    manufactured not only for US markets, but for
    global markets as well.
  • Sales and Manufacturing Facilities
  • The company's main manufacturing facility is
    located in Franklin, Ohio in a modern brick
    structure just under 100,000 square feet. Drake's
    vertically integrated manufacturing facility
    produces Drake equipment under one roof. Very
    little outside contract work is performed so
    products can be monitored to meet Drake standards
    of excellence. Drake also has a sales, service,
    and distribution facility in Peterborough,
    Canada.
