<strong>Crown</strong> FM/AM/WR/PS Receiver / Modulation Monitor<br />

New <strong>Broadcast</strong> Appliance Line<br />

Model <strong>RFBA</strong>-1 and <strong>RFBA</strong>-MA<br />

AM/FM/WR/PS broadcast receiver specifically designed to fill multiple needs.<br />

The <strong>RFBA</strong>-1 comes standard with 3 receivers built into a 1-RU chassis. The<br />

<strong>RFBA</strong>-1 is configurable to accommodate any mix of FM and AM stations plus<br />

WR and PS (Public Service). The <strong>RFBA</strong>-1 is a simple-to-deploy highly sensitive<br />

fully DSP-based monitor system that will provide best-in-class performance<br />

while maintaining a competitive price point. Fully frequency agile in all<br />

receivers via web or display makes the <strong>RFBA</strong>-1 the perfect choice for all your<br />

receiving needs for use as a translator receiver, EAS monitor, or on-air monitor.<br />

The <strong>RFBA</strong>-1MA, or as an upgrade to the <strong>RFBA</strong>-1, offers full DSP-based<br />

modulation monitoring for all three receivers. Unit can be fully controlled via<br />

Ethernet connection. The modulation monitor upgrade is available at time of<br />

purchase or as a software upgrade after deployment. The <strong>RFBA</strong>-1MA’s overall<br />

flexibility allows it to meet multiple customer needs while saving the end user<br />

rack space and money.<br />

Other features include web-based user interface, programmable output relay,<br />

programmable e-mail alerts, firmware updates via USB port, RDS encoder and<br />

decoder. Upgrades available to allow for modulation monitor and the ability to<br />

increase each tuner to receive two weather radio signals.<br />
