Radio Magazine Recognizes 25-Seven Systems With a Pick Hit Award

Las Vegas – NAB2008 – (April 17, 2008) – Radio magazine, the Radio Technology Leader published by Penton Media, announced the winners of the Pick Hit Awards for NAB2008. The Radio magazine Pick Hits panel selects the top 15 new products introduced at the convention.

This year, 25-Seven Systems (www.25-seven.com) earned one of the coveted Pick Hit Awards for its Program Delay Manager (PDM). PDM offers full protection against unwanted broadcast content while providing excellent audio performance and 25-Seven’s unique PD Alert™ system.

PD Alert enables the program director and/or other key personnel to receive e-mail notification, including an audio file containing the content deleted, that program material was blocked from airing by Program Delay Manager. PD Alert eliminates second-guessing about what was and was not aired during the incident, and creates a dump archive that helps establish intent to comply with FFC regulations. The fully featured PDM also includes advanced capabilities unavailable in any other profanity delay, including Livewire™ IP audio, a built in web server, and IP based configuration and control.

"The Pick Hit Awards are limited to 15 winners, which maintains the value and prestige of the award," says Chriss Scherer, editor of Radio magazine. In addition, the Pick Hit Award judges follow a strict set of rules and make their selections independently and anonymously, which is a further testimony to the proven value of the award to radio broadcasters."

The Pick Hit Awards were first presented at the NAB Convention in 1985, making them the oldest technology award at the convention. The Pick Hit Awards are selected by a panel of judges who are radio broadcast engineers from radio stations, radio networks and radio production facilities. The Radio magazine staff has no influence in the Pick Hit Awards decision, which ensures that there is no bias in the selections. The official Pick Hit rules require that the winning products must fit a recognized need in radio, are priced within reason, are available within the current calendar year and have never before been exhibited at the NAB Convention.

The complete list of recipients will be published in the June 2008 issue of Radio magazine, and it is available online at RadioMagOnline.com.
