EventCAST Is Ready for Events, Emergencies and STAs
EventCAST Portable Radio Systems can fill the gap when you need to light up an AM signal quickly due to loss of your main transmitter/antenna/site, to maintain an STA or want to broadcast local event traffic or parking info.
When an emergency is imminent, EventCAST Systems can be on the air in short order to inform motorists regarding safety procedures and status. The portable 10-watt transmitter and antenna system deliver a 3- to 5-mile daytime signal radius and can operate variously under Part 73 or Part 90 (TIS) licenses.
The system includes a program mixer for live feeds and a USBbased audio system for easy program repetition.
Information Station Specialists says its units are “kept hot and ready to ship on a moment’s notice.”
Users include radio companies, departments of public safety, health and emergency management, and state departments of transportation. Examples include Birmingham Emergency Communications in Alabama; Chennault International Air Show in Louisiana; the Dallas Zoo in Texas; Grand Canyon National Park in
Arizona; the Kentucky State Fair; and PGA golf tournaments including the US Open.
The company can help with TIS licensing when the application is for public safety.
