During public health emergencies, a RadioSTAT Portable Advisory Radio Station allows you to speak directly to the public over standard radio receivers.

RadioSTAT can be a lifesaver, allowing the broadcast of critical instructions and information regarding these types of emergencies:

• Evacuations.

• Mass care shelters.

• Outreach-event health, e.g., fairs, temporary clinics, schools.

• Surge operations, e.g., for overwhelmed hospitals.

• Field clinic operations.

• Points of Distribution (PODs), e.g., for mass vaccinations.

• Quarantines and isolations.

• Casualty collection points.

• Decontaminations.

RadioSTAT is a FCC-licensed radio service. Broadcasts can be received on standard personal and vehicle radios over a 3-5 mile range (25-75 square miles). RadioSTAT may be set up to broadcast a selected series of recorded messages from a prerecorded message library. As the situation changes, new messages may be recorded on the spot; and live programming can be on the air immediately. (See the FCC frequency and licensing services webpage.)

RadioSTAT is built for speed. All electronics are housed in a convenient weather-resistant electronics (Pelican) case. The quick-erect antenna system folds down for portability. The entire system weighs only about 65 pounds and can be set up in 10 minutes. (See the system specifications webpage for exact dimensions and component weights. See also the planning webpage.)

The RadioSTAT license is based on an operation area – a city, county or entire state. The signal is typically announced to the public by FASTrack (pictured above) or other portable signs, positioned at the periphery of the coverage area.

When it really counts, put public health information on the air stat . . . with RadioSTAT.

Budget: $12,995.
