Quincy Illinois, March 17, 2025 — Broadcast Electronics, a global leader in designing and manufacturing broadcast products, including transmitters for AM, FM, HD Radio®, TV and media software has a long history of providing rapid, high-quality service to their customers. Tech Twist Corporation and their client FSB Radio Network worked with Broadcast Electronics to upgrade their station Mellow Touch 94.7 with the new BE ETX 25000 – 25kW FM transmitter. The New ETX transmitter will be on display for the first time at the 2025 NAB Show (April 5-9, Las Vegas Convention Center) BE will exhibit at Booth W3301.
Broadcasting from the heart of Metro Manila, Philippines, FBS Radio Network station Mellow 94.7 offers a distinctive musical experience that seamlessly blends adult hits with Top 40 tracks. Catering to a broad audience, the station provides an eclectic mix of music that appeals to both young adults and mature listeners.
Broadcast Electronics partner, TechTwist Corporation worked closely with Mellow 94.7 for planning, installation and commissioning services, and jointly selected the BE ETX 25000 for providing the best combination of excellent energy effect, superior audio performance, ultra-reliable operation and industry leading “customer first” support.
“The climate of Manila makes the reduction of air conditioning loads and energy consumption of the radio station critically important,” said Peter L. Olase of TechTwist Corporation. “BE’s ETX delivers ultra-high energy efficiency and long-term cool operation, which substantially lowers cooling and electricity costs for Mellow 94.7.”
“The compact design of the ETX line allowed for 25kw of power in a single cabinet which made it much smaller than other options” said Gerald Cabrillos of Ergaxia-Philippines who lead the installation of the new ETX transmitter. “The installation was straight forward, and the transmitter was simple to operate and sounded great on the air”
“We are excited about our partnership with TechTwist Corporation and their customer Mellow 94.7and thank them for selecting BE to help deliver their content to listeners in Manila.” said Rich Redmond, President, and COO of Broadcast Electronics, “The new ETX line offers excellent energy efficiency, a digital direct-to-channel FM modulator and ultra-reliable highly efficient hot-pluggable power supplies to deliver the maintainability and robustness at an exceptional price.”
