VerStandig Broadcasting
Standardizes on iMediaTouch
Winnipeg, MB – OMT Inc. (TSXV: OMT) announces
that VerStandig Broadcasting will be
standardizing its entire radio group on OMT’s
iMediaTouch Digital Audio Delivery System.
VerStandig Broadcasting will begin using
iMediaTouch on all its radio stations in July

application to share talent voice tracks between
the clusters.
VerStandig Broadcasting owns and operates 10 radio
stations between the Hagerstown/Chambersburg/Waynesboro - MD/PA
market and Harrisonburg - VA market. WAYZ is the
number one station in
Hagerstown/Chambersburg/Waynesboro - MD/PA and
is the oldest and most powerful station in
Maryland serving 53 counties in 4 different
states. In Harrisonburg, VA,
WSVA, with its mix of talk, local news and
information and sports, remains one of America's
most popular AM stations, often ranking at, or
near the top of the local ratings.
“VerStandig has long
understood the benefits of standardizing on one
system. We are thrilled that they chose
iMediaTouch for their broadcast automation
requirements,” states Ron Paley, founder of OMT.
He adds, “With our latest Remote Voice Track
release, VerStandig’s talent can share remote
voice tracks from any studio connected to the
Internet and retain the same feature set and
benefits they have now in the local studio. We look forward to a long term positive
relationship with this impressive radio group
and to meeting and exceeding their
expectations.”
“We looked at many
different systems and kept getting drawn back to
OMT’s iMediaTouch!” states Chris Maestle,
Director of Programming, PA location. “I talked
with programmers and engineers that use
iMediaTouch and those that use other systems.
Everyone had good things to say about the system
they were using and most had complaints as
well…on the other hand; NO iMediaTouch user could come up with a system
downfall. That’s a powerful statement!”
