Radiosophy
Adds USB Port to MultiStream HD
North Sioux City,
South Dakota, June 30, 2005 -- Radiosophy™ announced a significant enhancement
to its award-winning MultiStream™ HD Radio™ receiver with the introduction
of a universal serial bus (USB) upgrade port.
This inbound-only service port will eliminate the need to return the unit to
the manufacturer for software updates. Instead, the receiver can be updated via
the Internet using a computer.
"We’re
capitalizing on the fact that the MultiStream HD is a computer
with an operating system and a programmable display. We wanted
to make sure our customers wouldn't have an obsolete radio
because of a software change," stated Richard Skeie, President
and CEO of Radiosophy. "Now we're affordable, transportable,
and updateable. This could extend the useful life of a MultiStream
HD by years."
Some
broadcasters plan to make use of the USB port to program the
receivers preset buttons including the popular Home Station
Preset™ button. (This is an oversized preset button designed
to receive raised-dome decals with a stations logo.)
Units will begin shipping in August at a price of $259.00. Radiosophy is currently
taking pre-orders from individual and volume purchasers.
Radiosophy
is a privately held company with operations in South Dakota.
