Collector Services

We manage the collection for you, recording the full AM or FM band for any geography. Or self-manage your own mass collection campaigns. Either way, the data is born belonging to only you, with full provenance back to the antenna that was used for the collection.

Select a state above to see its collector cities.

Collection is 100% off-air rather than stream capture: inside each market a receiver pulls the signal from a local antenna, so the stream holds what that market actually broadcast, when it aired.

Key Specifications

  • Coverage: all 210 U.S. DMAs live today
  • Demodulation types supported: AM, FM, (HD Radio - conditions apply)
  • Capture mode: Full-band IQ data from an SDR

Why It Matters

Traditional broadcast capture requires one tuner per channel or expensive multi-tuner cards. The Collector captures the entire band as quadrature data with a single receiver, dramatically reducing per-station capture cost. Adding a market means adding an antenna and a single small collector appliance, not a rack of tuners.
