WorldCast Systems has launched the Audemat FM/HD Probe, a new monitoring system for FM and HD Radio broadcasts.
The company says the Audemat FM/HD Probe is built to help broadcasters track signal quality, compliance, and on-air performance. It is designed for HD broadcasters that need one system to monitor FM, RDS, and HD1, HD2, and HD3 channels.

WorldCast Systems says the Audemat FM/HD Probe supervises FM and HD Radio services in one platform. The system monitors signal presence, audio levels, metadata integrity, and alignment between analog and digital paths.
As a result, broadcasters can check whether services stay consistent across platforms. The company says this helps teams maintain a smoother listener experience.
