POWERFUL CONTROL• Key information presented both on front touchscreen panel and on remote PC application• Mobile campaign with map display• Results displayed in text, graphical, map or geographical format• Enables you to create record of real-world contours of your stations & compare your signal with competitors
POWERFUL SAVINGS• Provides objective proof of coverage to advertisers and potential advertisers as aid to income generation• One box approach reduces calibration and maintenance costs
The Audemat FM MC5 is the most comprehensive and versatile measurement platform available in the world today. In the broadcast environment, it can be used as portable equipment to perform detailed monitoring within the coverage area or for static field measurements. It is also perfect for commissioning and maintaining FM equipment at the Transmitter site. In a manufacturing environment, it is a truly comprehensive tool for both R&D and production teams to perform highly accurate verification and enable quality control on the assembly line. It offers RF scanning, mobile RF analysis and RDS Decoding, MPX analysis, signal generation (RF MPX and audio) and a multitude of other test and analysis capabilities (frequency meter, distortion meter, Spectrum analyzer and Oscilloscope).
It delivers truly powerful levels of performance and accuracy while remaining easy to use and providing highly useful data is a clearly understood format. As the pioneering force behind the emergence of the mobile measurement market and the first to develop a product that enabled in-car drive tests back in 1996, Audemat are highly-regarded in this field. Previous offerings such as the FM MC3 and FM MC4 were sold in their hundreds and became the defacto standard for several major broadcasters and regulation authorities worldwide. Now, the Audemat FM MC5 which offers several major advancements in terms of accuracy, portability and measurement capabilities, looks set to do the same for a new generation.

Goldenear
The Goldenear option offers even greater assistance in evaluating market coverage and identifying trouble spots or potentially competitive signal issues.
Focusing on a single carrier, Goldenear records multiple parameters such as, multipath, signal strength, pilot, RDS, left audio, right audio, L+R,L-R and MPX. In parallel with these GPS and signal measurements, it also records the station’s audio onto the hard drive as an audio file to enable playback during post-campaign analysis.Goldenear uses all the collected data to calculate a “reception quality index” for each location which is then analyzed in conjunction with the recorded audio to identify key issues.
