Avateq, a privately owned company headquartered in Canada, was founded in 2009 and operates with approximately 10 employees. The company specializes in telecommunications, offering a line of products that includes signal analyzers and monitoring systems for digital TV and radio, as well as satellite analyzers equipped with Carrier ID decoding and interference detection capabilities.
Avateq released Firmware 17419 for its AVQ200 and AVQ1020 (OXU4) devices on September 28, 2026, introducing system-level debug logging, automated crash reports, and a redesigned MER per Partition and Averaging plot for HD Radio. This update also marks the final firmware release for the OXU4 controller board, which has reached End-of-Life. Previously, on September 18, 2026, the company published an article outlining key considerations for an ATSC 3.0 RF Analyzer, contrasting it with traditional ATSC 1.0 maintenance practices. In August 2026, Avateq highlighted critical metrics for broadcast engineers regarding transmitter signal quality, emphasizing that an ATSC 3.0 transmitter can appear operational while vital performance indicators silently degrade. Earlier in August, the company discussed the Broadcast Positioning System (BPS) as a GPS backup built on TV infrastructure, noting GPS's fragility for critical infrastructure timing. On July 31, 2026, Avateq provided insights on selecting optimal remote RF monitoring solutions for broadcast transmitters, designed to prevent undetected site degradation.
