Active Programs
Current initiatives serving our communities.
RapidCom Interoperability Network (RIN)
RIN is our regional wide-area radio network and independent messaging platform designed for NGOs, shelters, and community response teams. Both layers operate entirely independently of the power grid and commercial infrastructure — ensuring that when the lights go out and cell towers go dark, the conversation continues.
BeaconHEAR Scanner Network
BeaconHEAR provides digital radio feed access to first responders, media, and qualified agencies. Operated by Beacon Mid-Atlantic, it captures, decodes, and streams P25 digital radio traffic from major public safety networks in real-time.
In Development
Power Strike Teams
A planned initiative to deploy portable solar and battery generation trailers to power critical communications equipment at shelter sites.
Aerial Assessment
Developing a drone program to assist with rapid damage assessment of radio tower sites following severe weather events.
