CAPABILITIES

Full-lifecycle communication systems

From procurement to ongoing compliance, every service backed by coverage data and factory certifications.

RADIO PROCUREMENT

Kenwood, Motorola, and Tait portables, mobiles, and repeaters. We stock analog, DMR, P25, and NXDN across all bands.

SYSTEM ARCHITECTURE

RF coverage mapping and frequency coordination for anything from a single building to a county-wide network. Typical design phase is 2 to 30 days.

DISPATCH SOLUTIONS

Console systems for 911 centers, campus security, and fleet operations. Omnitronics and Zetron platforms integrated with your existing infrastructure.

COVERAGE NETWORKS

Three regional networks: Kenwood NEXEDGE Digital across Indiana and Kentucky, DMR Digital in the Carolinas, and Hytera HALO nationwide over LTE.

LIFECYCLE SUPPORT

Factory-certified repair, preventive maintenance plans, and 24/7 emergency response. One call, same-day dispatch for critical infrastructure.

COMPLIANCE

Full-service FCC licensing, managed renewals, and ongoing frequency monitoring. We handle the paperwork so you stay on the air.

EQUIPMENT

ABOUT RELAY

27 years of coverage data behind every recommendation.

Founded in 1997. Five offices across Indiana, Kentucky, and the Carolinas. We started with analog repeaters on grain elevators and grew into multi-state digital networks serving public safety, healthcare, and freight.

Every system we design starts with an RF coverage analysis, not a sales pitch. You see the heat map before we quote a single radio.

DOCUMENTATION

Frequently asked questions

Technical details on protocols, coverage, deployment timelines, and support plans.

We deploy across VHF, UHF, 700 MHz, 800 MHz, and 900 MHz bands. Protocol support includes analog FM, Kenwood NXDN, DMR Tier II/III, P25 Phase I/II, and LTE-based push-to-talk (Hytera HALO). Protocol selection depends on your coverage requirements, existing infrastructure, and regulatory constraints.

Single-site installations complete in 5 to 10 business days from purchase order. Multi-site or county-wide systems run 15 to 30 days, depending on permitting, tower access, and RF survey scope. Emergency replacements can ship and install within 48 hours under our priority SLA.

Every project starts with a free RF coverage assessment. We map your operational area, identify terrain obstacles and dead zones, and model signal propagation at the planned frequency. You receive a coverage report with heat maps before any equipment order.

Yes. We regularly bridge legacy analog systems with new digital networks using cross-mode repeaters and IP gateways. This lets you migrate departments incrementally without replacing every radio at once.

Maintenance plans cover quarterly preventive inspections, firmware updates, battery testing, and priority repair turnaround. 24/7 emergency support is included for public safety and critical infrastructure clients. All plans include FCC license renewal tracking.
