"Radio Protector" is the only single taken from 65daysofstatic's second album, 2005's One Time for All Time. It was released in February 2006 on 7" vinyl only, and limited to 1500 copies, containing both the track and new B-side "Asphalt & Trouble".

All copies are hand-stamped, hand-numbered and contain a lo-fi photocopied poster insert. As well as this, the first 1000 copies contain a unique polaroid photo taken by the band (all of these have titles, and these are found on the insert), and the remaining 500 copies contain a digital print of the 1001st polaroid. Although there are only 1500, the copies are numbered out of 3000.

A gallery of all the polaroids can be viewed on their website. The music video was produced by Media lounge.

The b-side Asphalt & Trouble uses an audio sample from the computer game Full Throttle.
