WEST MELBOURNE, Fla., Sept. 15 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- RELM Wireless Corporation (NYSE: AMEX: RWC) today announced the availability of two new features for its KNG line of P25 two-way radios: Wireless Tactical OTAR and Multicast VoteScan Plus (MVP). Both features are industry-firsts and unique to RELM's KNG products.

Wireless Tactical OTAR enables radio encryption keys to be changed without the use of a key-loader device when the radios are deployed. This capability significantly streamlines the user's encryption-key process by adding the capability to bypass the re-key infrastructure; eliminating the need to deploy expensive key-loader equipment with the radios, and thereby saving customers' time and significantly reducing their equipment costs.

Multicast VoteScan Plus (MVP) enables radios to scan predetermined channels to find the strongest available radio signal in a wide-area multicast network. RELM's MVP technology takes this scan ability to the next level by simultaneously scanning additional channels outside the multicast network. This combination, unique to RELM, allows RELM's KNG products to not only scan channels but also find the strongest signal which means improved communications for the radio user.

RELM President and CEO David Storey commented, "In addition to the many new radio models introduced over the last several quarters, our product development efforts are yielding meaningful feature enhancements that are requested by, and will benefit, our customers. Importantly, these enhancements are unique to RELM and real differentiators in a highly-competitive market environment."
