In 1998 he was one of the first field reporters at the BBC to be issued with a Nera M4 Satellite in 1998 which enabled him to operate as a single-person radio broadcaster. His work during the British General Election of 2010 was reviewed in The Daily Telegraph.

He was one of the first reporters to regularly use a voip application to broadcast live over 3G and wifi networks. He was also one of the first broadcasters to use a live streaming camera application to broadcast live TV pictures for broadcast on the BBC News Channel from an iPhone.
