In a special edition of Radio World Buyer’s Guide this month, we are featuring profiles of systems installers and integrators.
Inrush Broadcast Services began working with Texas Public Radio in 2025, and by early 2026 that relationship had evolved into what the firm calls an Inrush Member Station.
Inrush notes that stations are doing more than ever, making operations more complex, but with leaner teams. “The Inrush Member Station (IMS) model is meant to address that reality,” said SVP, Emerging Technologies Shaun Dolan.
“It is not simply contract engineering and not just emergency support. It is an ongoing relationship that gives a station access to a broader technical team in a way that most stations would find difficult to replicate internally.”
For TPR, Inrush helped organize access to systems, bringing greater consistency to logs and records, and providing a clearer path for troubleshooting and day-to-day support.
Strategic improvements included updates at the Galm Road transmitter site (shown) serving KPAC(FM) and KSTX(FM), implementing additional monitoring and control systems, new audio processing, enhanced PPM insertion and HD Radio deployment.
Other improvements included refining TPR’s implementation of WideOrbit automation and its integration with Axia Pathfinder Core PRO. Inrush helped simplify internal workflows, while deploying advanced PFCP panels to monitor operations.
“Inrush did not just complete discrete tasks or even projects at Texas Public Radio. It helped reduce the number of problems the organization is likely to encounter in the future,” Dolan said. “As radio infrastructure continues to evolve, the challenge is less about any one piece of equipment and more about how everything fits together, and who is responsible for keeping it running.”
