Section I 

INTRODUCTION 

Product Description 

The INOmini 634 is an off-air receiver for standard, medi-

um-wave analog radio broadcasts and targets professional 

‘confidence-monitoring’ applications. 
The front-panel, back-lighted LCD display is host to various 

menu screens, which facilitate easy setup of the 634 and 

display various parameters of received signal quality. 

Product Features 

Features of the Inovonics 634 include: 

 

Sensitive and selective DSP-based receiver tunes in 

either 10kHz (American) or 9kHz (European) 

increments. 

 

Easy setup using the LCD screen and jog-wheel 

navigation of the receiver’s menu tree. 

 

Accurate display of received signal strength and 

audio levels. 

 

Analog and AES-digital program line outputs. 

 

Front-panel alarms with rear-panel ‘tallies’ for Carrier 

Loss and Audio Program Loss.

Product Specifications 

Tuning Range:

  520kHz – 1710kHz in 10kHz steps, or 

531kHz – 1611kHz in 9kHz steps 

Antenna Input:

  High impedance (whip antenna) input (F), 

phantom-powered for optional active outdoor antenna 

Receiver Sensitivity:  

 10µV for 50dB S/N 

IF Bandwidth:  

Selectable at 6kHz, 4kHz, 3kHz, 2kHz; see 

graph on Page 12 

Audio Frequency Response:
