Only ISS provides strictly radio system components manufactured in the United States.

RadioSTAT is the only system of its kind that is comprised of a transmitter/audio system mounted in a weather-resistant shock case to allow maximum in portability (via handles/wheels) and flexibility (it may be used on the ground or on a building roof).

Only the RadioSTAT Portable Emergency Advisory Radio Station features black antennas that discourage ice build-up. Also, they are finished with a special UV-resistant, architectural-anodization process to prevent color fading.

Only the RadioSTAT Portable Emergency Advisory Radio Station includes a USB/flash drive-based digital message olayer and includes audio editing software to allow message creation and management on any standard PC or laptop.

Only RadioSTAT provides a version (RadioSTAT ^IP) to which you additionally can upload audio via Ethernet network.

Only the the RadioSTAT Portable Emergency Advisory Radio Station features a quick-erect antenna stand to support the antenna and connected groundplane that collapses and can be deployed within 10 minutes.

Only RadioSTAT uses an AM transmitter with a modern synthesized frequency system, so that if a frequency change ever is necessary, it can be easily done without component changes or board-level work. RadioSTAT’s TR6100 Transmitter utilizes an efficient Class D amplifier, comprised of only two driver devices for highest reliability. Moreover, TR6100 is the only such unit manufactured and type-accepted by the FCC for Travelers Information Station (TIS) applications in the United States.

ISS electronic designs are nonproprietary and all equipment uses standard 19" rack-mount hardware for ease of substitution and service. This means that, in the future, you may change components as needed without the requirement to return to ISS; i.e., simple wiring diagrams are provided, so you can service equipment yourself, if you choose, or have a third party assist – all with full ISS support.

Additionally, only Information Station Specialists offers technical assistance for the life of the product. ISS supports today radio stations that first went on the air in the 1980s. ISS’ staff of engineers has more than 80 years of combined experience specifically in the kind of radio technology under which RadioSTAT operates (FCC Rules, Part 90.242). This experience level is more than double that of any other company in the business.

Only ISS offers free professional recording services.
