Designed for temporary/event broadcasting, Radio Express is a complete, licensed radio system with a 3-5 mile range. Its weatherproof design with quick-erect stand and antenna system allows event personnel to set up quickly.

A convenience or a lifesaver, Radio Express can be the primary means of communicating with event attendees, for example, orchestrating their orderly evacuation of parking areas, if an event is affected by bad weather or an emergency.

ISS provides technical support, prerecorded messages by professional announcers and/or the technical/talent to operate the service. Radio Express and associated services are available by the week or month in all 50 states. Portable signs announcing the signal are available, too.
The Information Station is the most installed, most versatile and best overall value for general advisory radio purposes. Station managers may broadcast informational messages over a 25-75 square mile (3-5 mile radius) area, e.g., interpretive overviews, directions, schedules of events, rules and regulations, emergency instructions.

Options include . . .
  • Telephone- or computer-controlled audio.

  • A variety of antenna mounting styles.

  • Professional recording services.

  • Customizable signs to announce the station(s) to motorists.

  • A Vertical Profile Antenna System to minimize the installation area required and discourage vandalism.

 
RadioSTAT is a ready-to-go radio station in a high-impact weather-resistant case that includes a quick-erect antenna system and audio management software. The entire package may be transported quickly from place to place as needed. Or it may be set up at a fixed location. One person can set up RadioSTAT in 10 minutes.

Public health and safety officials use RadioSTAT as the primary means of disseminating information to citizens during and after natural disasters, health emergencies, HAZMAT incidents and manmade situations.

Listeners pick up the radio signal on vehicle radios, while portable FASTrack road signs tell them which frequencies to tune to.

Each RadioSTAT station covers a 25-75 square-mile area (3-5 mile radius range).

The RadioSTAT IP version permits control of audio via a standard Ethernet network.
