Radio Checks 

Radio checks can be performed in a few different ways.

1. A specific office or section at Post is responsible for calling every radio owner during the specified timeframe to ensure that each radio is functioning properly.
2. Employees also call the office or section responsible for radio checks within the scheduled timeframe.

Radio Checks can take place anywhere in the Directory by clicking the Radio icon at the top right of the toolbar.

Once clicked, the Create New Radio Check panel will slide open on the right side of the screen.

Create a New Radio Check

The Create New Radio Check panel allows you to log radio call results, record call quality, and add notes for reference.

• Radio Call Sign: Select the radio call sign from the dropdown menu.

• Call Quality: Choose one of the four options that best describes the call result:

  • Loud and Clear
  • Broken but Readable
  • Broken and Unreadable
  • Tried but No Contact
• Additional Notes (optional): Enter any additional details in the Additional Notes field.

• Out of Town (optional): If the employee is unavailable, you can record this by clicking the Out of Town button. This marks the employee as away instead of logging a call quality result.

Click Submit to save the radio check result, or click Clear to reset the form and start over.

Reviewing Recent Radio Checks

At the bottom of the panel, you’ll find a list of recent radio check entries. This helps track activity and verify successful submissions.

The list includes:

• Date/Time: When the check was logged.
• Radio: Radio ID used for the check.
• Employee: The employee associated with the radio.
• Result: The outcome of the call quality check.
• Receipt: A unique receipt code for verification.
