Suono Telecom RAG-FM – Rebroadcast Receiver

Suono Telecom RAG-FM Rebroadcast Receiver is a high-performance FM aural relay receiver that captures off-air FM signals and delivers clean stereo audio for translators, gap-fillers and rebroadcast links.

Overview – Suono Telecom RAG-FM Rebroadcast Receiver

The Suono Telecom RAG-FM Rebroadcast Receiver is designed for professional FM relay applications where program audio is taken off-air and re-transmitted on the same or another frequency. Operating across the 87.5–108 MHz FM band, the Suono Telecom RAG-FM Rebroadcast Receiver offers state-of-the-art reception quality to maintain program integrity even in challenging RF environments. Front-panel controls and display simplify channel selection and status checking, allowing engineers to configure the receiver quickly during installation or maintenance.

RF performance and protection

The RAG-FM provides synthesized tuning with fine 10 kHz steps, giving precise frequency alignment on any standard FM channel and allowing easy retuning when network plans change. High sensitivity and selectivity front-end filtering help the Suono Telecom RAG-FM Rebroadcast Receiver maintain stable reception in the presence of adjacent-channel or co-channel interference, which is critical for translator and gap-filler sites. Built-in squelch and mute functions protect downstream equipment and transmitters from noise bursts when the input signal falls below a reliable threshold, reducing the risk of rebroadcasting poor-quality audio.

Audio/MPX and applications

Suono Telecom RAG-FM Rebroadcast Receiver delivers high-quality stereo audio outputs suitable for feeding FM transmitters, STL links or audio distribution systems, with low distortion and a wide frequency response tailored to broadcast standards. Balanced audio outputs and composite/MPX options (where configured) give flexibility in how the receiver is integrated, whether directly into a transmitter’s MPX input or via a separate audio processor. Typical applications include FM translators, on-channel repeaters, regional gap-fillers and backup contribution paths where using an existing off-air signal is the most practical way to supply program audio.

Alternatives

For projects that combine off-air reception with RF links, systems such as the Suono Telecom 48-1100MHz STL pair with dedicated transmitters to create high-quality aural links in VHF and UHF bands.

Engineers planning broader relay and STL architectures can also compare Suono Telecom RAG-FM with other FM receivers and aural link products listed by specialist distributors to match sensitivity, redundancy and budget targets across the network.
