Emergency & Safety of Life Communiations
Making A Difference
Services we provide to the community
Land Radio Monitoring Services
Our volunteers maintain a listening service for emergency and safety-related calls on the citizen band radio network.
Our volunteer radio operators then notify the appropriate service or agency, such as emergency or utility services, which must respond to reported incidents.
Additionally, we offer radio equipment checks and weather updates upon request.
Contact us on UHF CB channels 5 & 35.
Our terrestrial monitoring stations are situated in:
Goodna and Jimboomba (as needed).
Community Engagement
Our organisation conducts public displays and information booths at local community events. We provide training for general and commercial radio users, covering proper radio use and basic communication protocols.
Our volunteers are eager to offer guidance and training on radio communications for events and private use. We also have a diverse skill set in programming and troubleshooting radio-related issues.
Marine Radio Monitoring Services
Our volunteers maintain a listening watch for emergency and safety-of-life calls along the Brisbane and Bremer Rivers, extending to Moreton Bay.
In addition, we offer radio equipment checks and weather updates upon request. We have four dedicated AIS receiving stations situated at Shorncliffe, Goodna, Southport, and South Bank. These stations collect vessel information, which is then displayed on the MarineTraffic live map, covering Moreton Bay, the Gold Coast & Northern NSW, as well as the Brisbane & Bremer Rivers.
For contact, reach out to us on VHF Marine 16.
Our marine-based monitoring station is positioned at Goodna.
