DALLAS – (April 13, 2008) –
Continental Electronics, the company that proved high-power, low-level combined,
FM/HD tube transmitters are viable and cost-effective, will introduce its new

FM Digital Exciter at this year’s NAB show in Las Vegas. This new, Next
Generation, exciter is the industry’s first ever “One Box” HD solution
incorporating Embedded Exporter and Exciter technology into a single, user
friendly, product. The 802EX
is based on “future focused” digital technology that advances performance beyond
other FM digital exciters, makes HD
Radio® much simpler to install and configure,
and enhances the FM/HD experience through the innovative application of soft
updates and firmware plug-ins allowing for a fully integrated analog and HD
solution, all in a single box.
Standard in all
802EX
exciters are: Continental’s unique,
proprietary, fully-adaptive, real-time, forward precorrection, allowing changes
in transmitter or RF system performance to be automatically sensed and
corrected; software selectable HD power levels of -20dB, -10dB or any power
level in between; Hi-Res color LCD screen for maximum clarity and accuracy;
built-in stereo generator; built-in audio delay (up to 16.4 seconds);

Continental is also offering a firmware plug-in
Embedded Exporter option to reduce cost and HD system complexity, furthering
