AUTOPIRATE RADIO SERVICE

bit radio: An automated Radio Interruption service for local area news. BIT Radio transmits brief audio 'break-ins', for rapid news delivery to established audiences.

Developed for instant publication of live gunfire audio over local FM, adapted for other alerts and events of interest. Unit will break in clearly over selected popular FM radio in 1-3 mile radius of BIT equipment; reception dependent on local conditions. Data can be a) realtime audio; b) sensor signal or c) network generated report. Broadcast Economy: BIT overcast transmissions have a duration of 1-10 seconds after which normal scheduled broadcasting will resume. This low-power micro-interruption radio news service will run automatically without editorial or station management, for sustained Autopirate operation. Bit Radio frequency sharing strategy does not assume co-operation of the host/carrier radio station.

BIT RADIO ENGINEER'S REPORT
BIT radioengineer's report from Waldorf Astoria Hotel, New York feb 2002

WTO Overcast: a BIT radio installation on occasion of the World Economic Forum in Manhattan 2002. See

For WEF application, BIT Radio service ran for 5 days from a secure location in the vicinity of the Waldorf Hotel, breaking in over local NPR member station WNYC 93.9 with live air quality data alerts [airbourne asbestos, dioxins and particulate levels from the World Trade Center fallout] for the area surrounding the conference venue. A one-second alert broke in clearly over normal station programming when either asbestos, dioxins or particulates fluctuated over the EPA set level.

REVIEW: Bureau engineers reported successful broadcast from 13:00h to 20:00h daily Feb 02-07. Failure analysis: number of WEF delegates tuning to NPR radio at any time over the 4-day summit approximated at 4% to nil [poll taken by BIT delegate inside the forum venue]. However chance of wef delegate encountering information from direct street action protesters was estimated as even lower, less than 2%, due to intensive police isolation tactics .
