Who operates Information Radio
Stations? |
Since our founding in
1983, we have worked hard to become the Nation’s premier
provider of radio systems, signage and associated
products and services designed to deliver important messages directly to
the public. So why select the “Specialists?”
Unlimited Support
We promise to supply remote
technical support for every solution we provide for you
. . . for its
entire useful life. The promise never expires. We are
still providing support for systems purchased in the 1980s.
Stability
Information Station
Specialists has been under the same ownership and
operating with the same company
name since its founding in 1983. Our contact information
has not changed for more than 30 years.
Universality
Our systems and components are based on tried and
true, open-market designs. We avoid "proprietary." This
makes future upgrades and maintenance simple.
Service
We provide everything from do-it-yourself systems to
"turnkey" solutions to station rentals. Your service selection includes FCC licensing,
planning, installation, training, StreamCASTing, professional recording and
even program management.
Simplicity
Purchases from Information Station Specialists are often
justified as "sole source" or can be purchased through a buying
cooperative, so competitive bidding is not often required
to obtain our products.
Uniqueness
Many of our product offerings are exclusive, such as the TR.6000
Radio Transmitter – the only one on the market that
features the full FCC-allowed 5000 Hz bandwidth.

Information Radio Stations is a generic term
synonymous with Travelers Information Stations
(TIS), Highway Advisory Radio Stations (HAR) /
Highway Information Systems & Low Power Radio
Stations (LPR). Operation of the stations is
governed by FCC Part 90.242 Rules. A FCC license
is required. Information Radio Stations may be
fixed or portable. Subcomponents may include
transmitter, antenna and ground system, digital
voice player, wateter, cabinet with conventional
or Corbin locks, lightning arrestors for RF,
power and telephone lines, coaxial cable. Most
stations employ black maximized antennas to
discourage ice accumulation and security
measures to prevent unauthorized program access.
Options include synchronization, battery backup,
solar power, remote programming by local,
network or telco, multi-station audio
distribution via RF or LAN / WAN or wireless
network. |
