This newest Orban air processor includes Orban’s proprietary MX distortion-canceling peak limiter; digital MPX; subharmonic synthesis and phase skew correction; a full suite of controls for stereo enhancement, multipath reduction, HF enhancement, EQ, AGC, multiband compression, stereo encoding, low-IM peak limiting and composite limiting; full function RDS/RBDS with PS scrolling; ratings processor loop-through, and automated dayparting with an NTP-referenced real-time clock.

In addition, SNMP features allow monitoring of status and sending of alarm notifications to the user’s network via an Ethernet connection.
