  Broadcast engineering - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Broadcast engineering is the field of electrical engineering, and now to some extent computer engineering, which deals with radio and television broadcasting.
Audio engineering and RF engineering are also essential parts of broadcast engineering, being their own subsets of electrical engineering.
Broadcast engineering involves both the studio end and the transmitter end (the entire airchain), as well as remote broadcasts.

 EXPERT
Broadcasters should be phasing out analog studio and control equipment while updating routing, synchronizing, and test and measurement systems with digital equipment (or making "slide-in" provisions for digital equipment).
If the broadcaster owns/shares a tower which is certified for the additional load, equipment should be installed side-by-side and tested for an "event-free" changeover.
The bulk of many broadcasters' audiences (especially in the top 20 markets) rely on cable systems or satellite distribution rather than off-the-air reception for the station's signal, and this trend will increase until the need for inefficient and expensive over-the-air transmission ceases in the not-too-distant future.

 Gene Seibel's Broadcast Engineering Page
From there I moved into the world of television engineering at a local non-commercial educational station.
Relocating to a large network station a year later gave me the chance to learn about every aspect of broadcasting from the microphone to the antenna to the news chopper, and meet some very interesting people along the way.
That's where the intrigue lies for me. Though I understand the technical principles, the idea that sound or pictures can be encoded onto invisible waves and sent through the air, to be recreated at the receiving end is magic to me to this day.
