PROJECT "CORNDOG ONE" MULTI-PURPOSE UNIT:
The trailer-mounted multi-purpose unit was developed with federal grant assistance.  Nicknamed "Corndog One" (note the "serving" counter outside the pass-through), this equipment is intended for a variety of uses including specialized communications, as a focus point/backdrop for public education and outreach, as a mobile emergency management office, or in support of a mobile command post.  The communications suite consists of the full spectrum of public safety radio and a comprehensive Ham radio package. A pneumatic 40 foot tower supports the antenna array.

An on-board computer and multifunction printer, lighting, and a complex battery system, are supported by a 2000 watt generator. Storage cabinets and countertops are stainless steel.  The light weight and mobile 10' "Pace" cargo trailer allows for easy maneuverability in the difficult conditions frequently found in local emergency operations.  "Corndog One" was designed entirely in-house and developed with the help of volunteers from our Amateur Radio community.
