PORTABLE EMCOMM (EMERGENCY COMMUNICATIONS) ANTENNA FOR REGIONAL DIGITAL NVIS OPERATIONS
If you want a 100% American sourced 10 through 80-meter antenna from a U.S. company that is owned by an American, then this HF system is it.
“LIGHT & SMALL! This is the perfect first responder’s EMCOMM antenna with a 1,000-mile coverage radius. This system solves the problem of carrying too much weight, eliminates the need for a lot of real estate, and cuts the time of deployment to 90 seconds.
OPERATIONAL SPECIFICATIONS
The MIL-STD-188 M110a digital communications mode is rated at 25 watts continuous and bursts of 100 watts digital for up to 1 minute using the MIL-STD Data Modem Terminal (MS-DMT) and Automated Message Terminal (AMT) software applications.
EMCOMM DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
A) Computer designed to maximize Q (efficiency)
B) Capacity Hat configuration to enhance your signals launch EMCOMM antenna patterns

Learn More about EmComm Antennas
EmComm antennas are used for Emergency Communications in Disasters. This is a specialized field within the broader field of emergency communications.
EmComm covers all technical means and modes for public safety agencies at all levels of government. This includes law enforcement, fire services, emergency medical services.
Learn More about Amateur Radio EmComm operations
Amateur Radio operators (hams) have informal and formal groups to coordinate EmComm response.
At the local level, hams may participate in local emergency organizations. They may organize local “traffic nets” using VHF (very high frequencies) and UHF (ultra-high frequencies). At the state level, hams are often involved with state emergency management operations.
Hams operate at the national level through the Radio Amateur Civil Emergency Service (RACES). This is coordinated through the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). This occurs through the Amateur Radio Emergency Service (ARES), which is coordinated through the American Radio Relay League (ARRL) and its field volunteers.
These individuals can participate in SkyWarn and operate under the National Weather Service (NWS). Here they provide emergency weather information to the NWS for analysis and dissemination to the public.
