Fixed-Location Solutions

ALERT AM System

3 to 5 Mile Radius Range

ALERT AM Emergency Stations are a tool emergency managers employ to reach their communities in times of crisis. Programming is managed on a local area network with National Weather Service warnings that interrupt automatically. ALERT AM systems also include an uninterruptible power supply and an audio processor for maximum range and intelligibility. Options include redundant USB-based audio management, live mic and live feed program capabilities. The StreamCASTing option allows programming to be simulcast to portable devices and PC’s and can include Alexa advisories. Flashing ALERT Signs may be added to advise motorists of message urgency. ALERT AM Stations are modular and may be upgraded at any time.

RadioSAFE Systems

5 to 20+ Mile Radius Range

RadioSAFE Wide Area Emergency Radio Broadcast Systems provide enhanced signal coverage that can be critical in public emergencies. RadioSAFE System RSF:10X operates at 10 watts with waivered field intensity limits that produce a 7-10-mile radius range. System RSF:500.10X operates similarly until required to ramp up to a signal radius of 20+ miles. Both systems utilize the HPR.0990 High Efficiency Antenna from a fixed location and require FCC special approval. StreamCASTing to portable devices and PC’s and flashing beacon signs to announce the signals are a few of the many options available.
