It took me almost an hour of listening to bits and pieces of audio from this station. Finally heard the address of the memorial at 0412z.

i know this is an old topic but ti thought i would add some info:
what they are using > http://www.theradiosource.com/products/information-station.htm
where they are located > http://www.theradiosource.com/images/flight-93-map-large.jpg
quote from a 2014 article taken from the internet:
Quote
"The two TIS stations will be located at Pennsylvania Turnpike facilities at Bedford (Exit 146) and Somerset (Exit 110), Pennsylvania, and will be managed remotely from Memorial administration offices at nearby Stoystown.

The winning bidder, Information Station Specialists of Zeeland, Michigan provided the project’s frequency coordination and will install the equipment at Turnpike facilities this fall. The company’s design allows Memorial staff to record, process and archive audio files at their offices and transfer completed programs to the stations via wireless/IP methodology. This will be the first time the agency has used wireless to manage an information radio system.

Procurement is being coordinated through the US Department of Transportation (Volpe Center) in Cambridge, Massachusetts."
