Inovonics has been selected for audio processing with the installation of FM 90 Radio Unity, a new Community Radio Station (CRS) in the tribal Narmada district of India.

System Integrator and Inovonics´ partner – BECIL (Broadcast Engineering Consultants India Ltd) chose the 719N DAVID IV FM Broadcast Processor to integrate with the installation because of its audio processing capabilities and unique feature set.
