Expressly for temporary applications, Radio Express is a
noncommercial radio information service that can broadcast directions,
schedules, safety info, rules, parking and traffic info (including live
programming) to listeners as far away as 5 miles. Radio Express can be a
convenience and a lifesaver during public events such as fairs,
festivals, conventions and sports contests and can give inbound patrons
information on parking, directions and special instructions. It may also
be needed to broadcast temporarily during emergencies, such as,
forest fires, hurricanes, flooding, tornadoes, etc. The
service is also available for testing AM radio in your area. |

If an event is affected by bad
weather or an emergency, Radio Express can be the primary means
of communication with patrons, orchestrating an orderly
evacuation from parking areas, should it be necessary.
In the aftermath of a natural or man-made disaster, the service
can be initiated to inform and direct those affected,
communicating directions to sources of relief, hazard warnings
and other public safety advisories that affect travel.
Radio Express is a complete, licensed radio system with 3-5 mile
range and is designed to be weatherproof. It has a quick-erect
stand and antenna system that allows personnel to set up
quickly.
Portable signs announcing the signal are available, too.
ISS provides technical support and can even include prerecorded
messages by professional announcers, as necessary.
Radio Express and associated services are available by the week,
month or season in all 50 states. Equipment can be express
mailed overnight.
