Greetings!
We are releasing our July eNewsletter a little early this month. The reason being that Alabama Fire Departments have only a few days left to apply for an AAVFD/Forestry grant that closes on July 2nd. This will be our lead article this month!
We will also be displaying some of the newest communications products at the AAVFD Fire Conference on July 23rd and 24th at the Fire College in Tuscaloosa, Alabama. You are cordially invited to top by our booth and see what's new from Falcon Direct!
It's Grant Time Again!
The grant application period for the Alabama Wildland Fire Prevention
Grant is now open (It closes on July 2, 2010).
Several years ago, we developed the CAPS program that was designed specifically to address the requirements of this grant. The material has now been updated and is available for use by those who might wish to use this information to file for a grant.
Additional information is available by clicking on the link below. Don't miss out on this one. We've done all the work for you!
Hytera Pricing Announcement
We are delighted to announce that UHF models of the Hytera mobiles,
portables, and repeaters are now shipping!
The REALLY BIG NEWS is that these radios are compatible with the popular MotoTRBO radios which are based on the DMR operating system. Until now, US users had only one choice. Now there is another choice, and it is a better choice and we GUARANTEE that it is a better choice.
Backorder Update of Minitor V
As many Minitor V customers know, Minitor V pagers have not been
shipping for over a month. The reason is an issue with the rechargeable
battery that has resulted in a hold on product shipments.
If you have a pager order on hold and need immediate shipment, you may want to consider either one of two alternatives available at essentially the same cost.
What does Napoleon have to do with service?
One of the requirements of a recent communications bid was for potential
vendors to provide information on post sales services, presumably
meaning a request for hourly rates, response time, contract options, etc
We think what the prospective customer was really asking, was what's it going to cost me to keep me operational and what kind of downtime might I expect if I have a problem?
Introducing the XChange Service Program!
We are not in the service business. We are in business to take care of
those we serve, promptly, and at reasonable cost. That means we don't do
business like the other guys and that is why we think you may be
interested in knowing more about one of our special programs known as
XChange.

A special message for golf course administrators
A repeater station capable of handling both voice and data
communications generally sell for three to four thousand dollars. A
typical repair can easily be a thousand dollars or more and the time to
restore service can be days, weeks, or even months! Now, there is a
better way!
As part of our XChange program, we offer your choice of purchasing a backup repeater for UNDER $1,000 or 3 hour exchange and repair of a damaged repeater.
Closing comments
America's Independence Day - July 4th! A holiday for some, just another
day for others, and a very special day for those who love the United
States of America. We count ourselves in the final category.
We are all dealing with real challenges. These are tough times, but it is in the bad times that we grow. I was reading the other day that when we make a decision, the choice is made on past experience and present influence - NEVER logic!
It seems the logic side of our brain does not kick in until AFTER we have made a decision. We may have made some bad decisions. Everyone does, but all problems are fixable! We just need to remember to have faith in our Creator and in each other. God bless the USA!
