About Relay

Started with a truck and a frequency counter

In 1997, we started programming radios for volunteer fire departments in rural Indiana. One truck, one tech, no office. Today we run five offices, three coverage networks, and over 10,000 radios across three states. The work got bigger. The phone still gets answered the same way.

Engineered, not resold

Every deployment is designed by our RF team. We map your coverage, specify the hardware, and build it.

99.8% network uptime

Three regional PTT networks we own and operate. Your coverage doesn't depend on a carrier's roadmap.

2am? We pick up.

Our emergency line is answered by an engineer. Loaner shipped overnight, remote diagnostics before sunrise.

Testimonials

From the job site

Relay designed and installed our P25 system without a single day of downtime. Our deputies went from dropped calls and dead zones to crystal-clear coverage across the entire county.

Our drivers haul through the most rural stretches in three states. Cell coverage is hit or miss. Relay's network gives us instant communication everywhere, and our monthly cost dropped 30%.

The team at Relay treats our radios like they're mission-critical. Because for us, they are. 14 years and counting.

FAQ

Common questions

Kenwood, Motorola, and Tait. Kenwood for construction and manufacturing. Motorola for public safety. Tait for utilities and transportation. We recommend based on your operation, not margin.

Under 50 radios: 2-4 weeks. Multi-site with repeaters and dispatch consoles: 6-12 weeks. We go live on your schedule.

Yes. Our nationwide PoC network runs on Hytera HALO over LTE. Radios roam automatically between our regional networks and cellular.

Our emergency line is answered by an engineer, not a call center. Loaner shipped overnight, remote system diagnostics run before sunrise.
