INSTITUTIONAL TIMELINE

From 2010 Repeater Network to Modern Multi-State RoIP Core

We have preserved every foundational commitment from our 2010 charter while systematically upgrading our RF repeaters, CAD alerting servers, and field command trailers.

2008 – 2010

Foundation Charter & 24/7 Dispatch

Launched as The Non-Profit for Non-Profits with a 24/7/365 toll-free emergency dispatch center (1-800-567-0535), Res1cue Radio broadcast streams, and medical communications for the 2009 Harbor to the Bay charity ride.

2011 – 2015

CT & Northeast Repeater Expansion

Welcomed the Farmington, CT repeater into the Sitecast Solutions network alongside high-elevation nodes in Waltham/Boston, Mt. Tom, Greenfield, Rhode Island, and Nassau County NY (Bellmore-Merrick EMS).

2016 – 2021

P25 Phase II & Cloud CAD Migration

Replaced legacy Flash and static table portals with low-latency SIP/RTP RoIP voting trunks, mixed-mode P25 Phase II digital repeaters, and automated POCSAG 1200 / Quick-Call II paging gateways.

2022 – 2026

AES-256 Mesh & LEO Failover

Deployed zero-trust AES-256-GCM IP backhaul across all 14 Northeast repeater trunks, integrated LEO satellite failover at mountain sites, and expanded zero-cost NEMSIS v3.5 portals for 501(c)(3) squads.
