TEK Talk, Episode 5 (Total Cost of Ownership)
We've reached the epic conclusion to the 'TEK Talk' mini-series with Total Cost of Ownership (TCO)! This is the final episode and we wanted to make sure we covered one of the most important aspects to any satcom antenna consideration, not to mention any business: COST. Episode 5 breaks down the various factors to consider when looking at cost over the lifetime of a product and how operational expenses (OpEx) can significantly outweigh acquisition/capital expenses (CapEx).
It features Seth Miller, Aviation Technology Journalist, interviewing Bill Milroy, ThinKom CTO covering a broad range of hot topics in the world of satellite communications.
