ALERTradio COLORADO – It’s all about being ready.
Looking for System Operators in Colorado that are interested in working with ALERTradio ERC
radio = a communications resource for delivery of critical information.
ERC = Emergency Response Communications
It has been a while since we last posted anything here on theBlog so here we go. There is definitely a lot of new technology that is waiting to be implemented into daily operational use as well as ready for emergency response needs. Here are some of technology advancements that ALERTradio ERC should be working with this year:
Also need to create some new training opportunities that will encourage participation and most of all readiness for any hazard. There’s a lot that can be done, yet the main challenge always comes down to funding it appears. May a solution to this challenge be discovered and the above listed technology advancements and services be implemented.
ALWAYS BE READY.
theBlog is back, it also has SMS notification available for those that want to be informed of changes as they happen. Additional features will be added shortly.
Just A Dream almost, bright new ideas keep showing up all around yet no one seems to know how to get things implemented. People appear as if they are interested until they find out that there is a price tag involved. Yet some how they meet their own personal needs, but what about the people developing the new networks and systems and finding ways to improve upon the past and present?
Then there are those that ask the question when will you have the system online? And the answer remains it all depends on when funding is available. Yes, it seems that the majority of the development and implementation questions always end up having a financial solution to them. At some point there will be more people involved that can lighten the load for everyone. Until then we will have to do the best that we can and work on coming up with some creative new funding ideas too.
There may be some showing up shortly, hopefully the support that is needed will be present so we can once again work on building networks and systems that are indeed state of the art in technology.
There is a lot being planned, so be sure to check out the links and the pages, as well as the RSS Feed. The technology adventure continues …
