Sep 18, 2008 (M2 EQUITYBITES via COMTEX) -- WGNR | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- Wegener Corporation (Nasdaq: WGNR), a provider of equipment for television, audio and data distribution networks worldwide, announced on Wednesday (17 September) that Dial Global, Triton Radio's sales and programming division, has placed a USD2.1m equipment order for WEGENER iPump 6420 audio media servers and network products.

Dial Global is reportedly purchasing the equipment to upgrade and expand the WEGENER file-based broadcasting platform that Jones Media America currently uses to manage its 2,000-radio station network from its Denver network operations centre (NOC). Jones Media was acquired by the company in June 2008.

The company said that this is the initial phase of a multi-year project to ultimately expand Dial Global's file-based distribution of programming, advertising and related services to their 6,000 radio affiliates.

The order was booked during the fourth quarter of WEGENER's fiscal year 2008 and will ship over the first three quarters of WEGENER's fiscal 2009.
