General Information
Dual DSP-based, compact and affordable Radio Explorer II is a product with highly evaluated
performance. This device is the perfect solution for filed surveys and on site monitoring of
station’s complete signal. A click on the button converts the Radio Explorer II into an excellent
tool for analyzing of the signal strength and quality after repairs or set-up of new equipment. This
cost-effective device can measure RF level, MPX deviation, Left & Right Audio levels, RF field
strength, RDS and Pilot injection levels and display the measurements on the easy to read OLED
Graphical display.
The Radio Explorer II is a multifunctional device designed in line with all market requirements.
This mobile easy to use tool evaluates the FM broadcast band congestion and stores all important
radio broadcast parameters in a Log file. The built-in FTP system allows managing of the files by
an assigned schedule. All collected information is centralized in a database and can be revised,
played back, and sent automatically to the qualified staff if need be.
Designed for signal surveillance, on the field where the listeners are, all that is needed is a
vehicle and Radio Explorer II. There are two distinct campaign modes:
Radio Explorer II can be set to measure automatically one or multiple preselected frequencies
(Up to 50);
RDS PI / RBDS Call campaign – up to 10 stations can be chosen. Radio Explorer II will
automatically detect the used frequency. While the campaign is running, the chosen stations will
be monitored; Radio Explorer II will automatically switch over between the variable frequencies
during movement - just as the car radio of your listeners.
When the campaign is over using the supplied free of charge Windows software, the log
files could be converted into KMZ format and visualized in Google Earth. Such functionality
is irreplaceable when current information of the FM broadcast band congestion and coverage is
needed. As an addition, the Log file can be also exported and saved as a transitional format for
future analysis.
The band scan mode guarantees real-time live visualization of the FM band or a particular
predefined part of it, with down to 10 kHz resolution. Radio Explorer II can be controlled through:
The built-in Web server - a standard web browser can be used to monitor its status or make
some adjustments. Apple and Android devices are also supported. The Main Screen of the WEB
Interface shows all mandatory parameters represented as LED readings;
The supplied free of charge DEVA Device Manager Software - easy-to-use interface allows
quick and easy connection to the device. The dedicated module ensures managing of all the
device’s logs and displays all the events in a handy manner;
The very intuitive user interface with OLED screen, Front panel navigational and soft buttons
ensures an easy usage of the device’s build-in features.
Supporting both RDS/RBDS standards and measurement units, the Radio Explorer II is a
suitable choice for broadcast engineers from all around the world. For better control and data
representation the device can be connected to any Windows® based PC, via the LAN or USB port.
Offering various bar-graphs, data plots, histograms, etc., this device will meet the expectations of
the most demanding broadcasters.
