UPDATE:   Masters Communications is out of business after 23 years of service in the industry.

As bad as this news is, there is good to report.  Dale Maust and Kevin Custer have been hired by WestPAnet, Inc., a Warren Pennsylvania based communications company.  They will contiunue to provide the excellent technical and construction services Masters was well known for.

WestPAnet has the ability to do many of the same services that were offered by Masters.  WestPAnet, Inc. is a full service communications construction and technical service company.  We offer all services from basic walkout to system design, and professional construction and maintenance. We offer "turn-key" coaxial plant construction with professional activation of both forward and reverse (return). We have in-house fiber (fusion) splicers [people and machines] and optical technicians to specify, design, build, and splice your fiber optical needs.  Our people can help you with your Passive Optical Network (PON) Systems, GPON, EPON, and RFOG from design to construction and maintenance, from the headend to the subscriber NID.  If you are interested in the triple/quadruple play (video, telephony, and data/Internet), call us today!

Our RF technical team can design anything from a simple 550 meg system to a complex bi-directional 1.5 Gig multi-node fiber to coax system. We can tackle the toughest plant maintenance problems with professional sweep balance and repair of older plants by using the latest sweep gear from Wavetek (now JDSU). The JDSU "Stealth" SDA and Pathtrack sweep system is by far the best approach to plant sweep because of no subscriber interference.  We offer sweep on any plant to 1000 MHz. Our technical staff offers a "unique approach" to plant maintenance with over 100 years of combined technical experience.  We have thousands of hours in return maintenance and ingress reduction services, and we also offer FCC certification (proof of performance) 24 hour testing and CLI (leakage) testing and repair.  Our technical team understands the difficulty of return plant maintenance from the cable modem to the CMTS-UBR.  The technical team has built/re-built many headends and remote tower sites and has the experience to tackle any problem that may lie between the signal provider and the customer/subscriber.

Digital Off-Air reception can experience issues beyond even the best trained technicians. We have the ability to specify and install this type of equipment to clean up your present off-air channels that may have unresolved analog noise or ghosting.  We have trained, certified, and insured tower climbers to handle all of your tower needs including installing low noise antenna installations for digital reception.  Cable programming providers are constantly switching satellite technologies and birds.  We have extensive experience and precision test equipment for aligning multi-beam feeds on large dishes like AFC, Eagle, and Patriot.  We keep up with the times and can resolve any satellite C/Ku TVRO, DBS, or microwave link problems.

If you are a small operator or a large corporation, WestPAnet is your best choice for contracted design, construction, and maintenance.
We are ready to take on your construction and maintenance requirements.

Please feel free to call or email us today, as we'd be happy to discuss your needs.
(814) 726-9462, Monday through Friday, 8:30 AM to 5:30 PM eastern time.

Those of you who have Dale or Kevin's cell phone number, feel free to call - their numbers haven't changed!
