Eigenverantwortliches Vorbereiten und Durchführen von Schaltungen und Überspielungen im Hauptschaltraum und Bedienung der Sat-Empfangs- und Sendeanlagen
This is from a work reference for somebody who worked as a transmission engineer. I need to get the exact term here for "Schaltungen' Is it just 'broadcasts"? I found 'live broadcasts' for 'live-Schaltungen' on a google search.
