It has been a little over 2 months since we lost our friend and coworker Keith Siverling. He was not only an exemplary employee, but also a spiritual leader within our company. The example of how he conducted his life will live on, as we try our best to follow in his footsteps. RIP Keith, you are surely missed🙏

Celebrate the life of Keith Siverling and join others in sharing memories, stories, and condolences.

The DOI is the largest landowner in the U.S. but the most critical aspect of its public safety capability is severely lacking — the ability to communicate.

The Pepro Two-Bay Micro Radio Site Introduced at IWCE!

The Two-Bay Micro Radio Site is a compact, self-contained and low profile mobile site designed to fill coverage gaps as well as any other situation where a rapidly deployable solution is needed. It is specifically designed to be LTE and FirstNet ready. The unit is completely self-grounded while in use, requiring no additional time or equipment for safe deployment. It needs no separate foundation and has no impact on the surrounding environment.

The Two Bay Micro Radio Site is a low-profile mobile site, standing less than six feet tall when the integrated articulated tower is lowered for easy mobility. The tower can be quickly and easily raised from the ground with all antennas and equipment already attached. The full system is deployable by one person in as little as 15 minutes. As with all Pepro products, the Two-Bay Micro Radio Site is designed for reliability and durability.

Pepro Installs 11 New Radio Sites for the USDA Forest Service

Pepro has completed the installation of 11 sites for the USDA Forest Service, including 4 fly-in sites. The Forest Service installs involved traveling over 9,000 miles. The sites were are located in eight states including Oregon (2), Montana, Colorado, Wyoming, Nevada, Washington, Utah and Arizona. Four additional sites will be installed for the National Park Service in October, two of which are fly in installations.

The work was accomplished in two legs from July 8 to August 8, with each installation taking less than a day to complete, often less than four hours. Pepro began offering its installation service in 2011 in response to customer demand for completely hands-off site ordering that eliminated any risks, delays or liability resulting from handling installation with their own staff.

Pepro Shelter Withstands a Massive Lightning Strike at Forest Service Site:

Marc Kaschmitter, acting telecommunications contracting officer representative for the USDA Forest Service, has a story to tell about working with Pepro. He's used Pepro shelters for years, flown sites in with helicopters, has installed sites with difficult location requirements, but has one story in particular that demonstrates why he continues to rely on Pepro to protect sensitive radio equipment. Roughly a year ago, a lightning strike hit a tower at Coffin Mountain with enough energy to shoot a nearby 200 pound boulder out of the ground. It vaporized the elements in the antenna and feet of the center conductor in the feedline, and inside the unit, there wasn't even enough electricity to trip a fuse. "It was amazing how well the Faraday Cage actually acted in dispersing the lighting energy to ground. The PolyPhasers were still in tact."

Given his experience with even just the Coffin Mountain site, his trust in Pepro is understandable. "We evaluate the site access, what the needs are, how many radios, and if all the boxes are checked, we go with Pepro," said Kaschmitter. "The reasons why we go with Pepro are the Faraday Cage technology, the ease of deployment and the building will last. The staff sees the quality in them."

Today we say good-bye to a friend and long time employee Jeff Kahle. Jeff was a friend to all who knew him and the most dedicated employee any company could ask for. Simple words cannot express how much he meant to Pepro, it's customers and employees.

Take Action With Pepro!

Alexander Graham Bell once said, “The only difference between success and failure is the ability to take action.” At Pepro, it has been our mission to provide the vessels needed for the telecom industry to take action. Whether it is a cell site at the top of Mt. St. Helens, or an LTE site on the border in the southwest desert, or a mobile COW for restoring communications in the middle of a metropolitan area, or even a Nano Site set up by 2 workers in the middle of a parking lot, Pepro provides these and many other engineered solutions so you may “take action” to secure and ensure your problem free communications.

Shielding makes the difference! Not only are the Pepro solutions the most readily deployable, environmentally friendly and robust in the industry, but they stand alone in mission critical applications. Our patented, Mil-Spec shielded enclosures have made and continue to make all the difference in mission critical situations. Our shielding standards provide our customers with the assurance that lightning, RFI, EMI, EMP and PIM, will not compromise the communications.

Please be sure to stop in and see us at IWCE Booth #369. Our crew will be happy to talk to you and assist you with some of your telecom issues and applications.
