Radi-O-Sound Communications, based in Salem, Ohio, is a prominent provider of commercial audio, fire alarm systems, and healthcare security solutions. Founded in 1962 as McCune Electronics, the company initially focused on installing two-way radios. In the years following, it expanded its offerings by acquiring dealerships for well-known brands, including NuTone and Dukane. The electronics division was acquired by Jim Childers in 1967 and rebranded as Radi-O-Sound Communications, which allowed it to broaden its business scope to incorporate audio systems, nurse call systems, and fire alarms.
In 1997, Radi-O-Sound merged with Strayco Inc., a company engaged in TV repair and satellite services, which facilitated a move to downtown Salem and the expansion of their service offerings. Over the years, Radi-O-Sound Communications has positioned itself as a leader across various industries such as corrections, education, healthcare, government, and corporate environments. The company has worked with a diverse client base including military facilities, sports venues, and nursing homes.
