FM RDS/RBDS monitoring and control equipment
Overview
The A20 FM Monitoring Decoder enables you to monitor either your own frequency continuously and/or to be informed about your neighbourhood station as well. The A20 offers economic quality control for radio stations. The included PC software A20Lab allows you to monitor all parameters and measurement values your A20 is able to receive. Together with the included RDS decoding software RDS Lab it is possible to monitor RDS extensively. The optional RDS Logger software is adapted for further documentation purposes. All RDS group data are recorded and written into log files and can even be played back.
