Work From Home with Rangecast
As the nation continues to be impacted by COVID-19 and assignment desk staffs are now working from home, Rangecast has implemented a special program to help stations rapidly transform their existing scanners into a Rangecast system which can be operated on a limited-time during the crisis or extended thereafter if desired. We can do this even overnight and train your staff on the operation of the system with a 15-minute conference call. Please contact Rich Barnett for details at: or call

CAPTURING BREAKING EVENTS
Rangecast is the perfect solution for managing police scanners in a newsroom. We take these complex scanners, which many desk staffers have difficulty using, and rack them up in an equipment room at your station, or optionally at remote bureaus, microwave receive sites, transmitter or camera sites. All the scanner audio and data is uploaded to the Amazon S3 Cloud.
The scanners are then easily accessed and operated through a simple web browser on the assignment desk or anywhere inside or outside of the station. With Rangecast not only does the desk have access to the Rangecast HTML5 "web player", but a news director, overnight producer or anyone at the station can also listen-in by simply launching a browser and entering their Rangecast login. And now even your photogs and reporters in the field can scan as well on tablets and cell phones (Android and ios)
Rangecast revolutionizes how a newsroom acquires and manages the wealth of valuable information scanner radios offer. We can bring you all the radio traffic from every service of interest within your DMA.
