AmpliVox Sound Systems, manufacturer of megaphones and portable PA systems, is donating a free megaphone to any COVID-19 drive-up testing site to control traffic and provide clear, audible instructions to participants in their cars. The megaphone, AmpliVox Model S600R projects strong, clear sound up to 100 yards.
“We know there is a surging demand for COVID testing, and that additional drive-up sites are being developed,” said AmpliVox CEO Don Roth. “Our business is voice amplification, and we are happy to support the pandemic recovery effort by helping people in their cars clearly hear instructions from testing personnel.”
The free megaphone is available to COVID-19 checkpoints and drive-through testing sites (limit one free megaphone per site, please.) The Mini-Meg 10-Watt Rechargeable Megaphone weighs just two pounds, has a built-in siren and fold-up handle. It works from 4 D cell batteries or optional rechargeable battery pack, providing up to 20 hours of continuous talk time.
To get the free megaphone call AmpliVox at 800-267-5486 and ask for Jason, ext. 442, or Patrick, ext. 438. If you can’t get through on the 800 number, dial directly: Jason, 847-504-8442, or Patrick, 847-504-8438.
