AmpliVox Championship Partnership With Track and Field Champions




The Big 12 Outdoor Track and Field Championship was held this past weekend, May 13-15 from TCU’s Lowdon Track & Field Complex in Fort Worth, Texas. The meet has shaped up to be one of the most competitive in the country.


Larry Able, Master Level Starter was at the event and used the AmpliVox Half Mile Hailer for the weekend's meet that was hosted by Texas Christian University.

Larry has been using AmpliVox’s versatile and reliable PA system for many years with great success.

He has just upgraded to use our rechargeable NiCad battery pack to improve the consistency of his starts, as well as eliminate the need for searching for batteries when he travels.

“A large number of starters here in Kansas, Oklahoma, and Missouri have AmpliVox Half-Mile Hailer Kits for their track meets.

I'm using a deluxe quad horn kit now and my older systems are still in use by other starters.

All of us believe in the quality of the product and, as I've seen first-hand, the quality of your customer service.”

To ensure that all members on the field and in the crowd can clearly hear the officiating announcements, Larry Able used the SW662 Deluxe Wireless Quad Horn Half-Mile Hailer Kit to assist his public address needs.
