Kumtor Gold Mine in Kyrgyzstan are expanding their existing VDV Leaky Feeder system to provide coverage at a second portal.

A second VDV Headend is to be set up at the new portal and, as it is not line of sight to the first portal, it will be linked back to the first headend via a two-channel repeater.  Similarly to the initial leaky feeder installation all components have been configured and tested prior to shipping to allow the site personnel to simply install the new extension on site.

MST remain appreciative of the support shown by Kumtor Gold in our VDV Leaky Feeder Radio System and our ability to ship a pre-configured system for straight forward site installation.
