Indianapolis, IN (PRWEB) June 26, 2006 -- Tieline Technology, a leading provider of high-quality remote broadcast digital audio codecs, announced today that its upgraded Commander G3 codec is the winner of radio’s most prestigious technology honor, the “Cool Stuff” Award, given by a panel of engineering judges on behalf of Radio World newspaper at the recently concluded NAB2006 convention in Las Vegas.

The Commander G3 codec is used at live events to deliver broadcast quality audio from remote venues such as sports stadiums, back to the studio ready for live transmission. Commander G3 - the first to offer broadcasters six network options in one audio codec – has been upgraded to offer broadcasters their choice of high-quality, low-delay live audio and data transfer over POTS analog telephone lines, ISDN, BRI links, X.21 digital-leased lines, GSM wireless, IP, 802.11x and cellular broadband networks. This selection of network options guarantees broadcasters a broadcast-quality stable audio link back to the studio no matter where the remote is located.

Radio World U.S. Editor in Chief Paul J. McLane said the “Cool Stuff” Award means a product was selected by a panel of engineers and industry experts as notable for its design, features, cost efficiency and performance in serving radio users.
