For two-way radio shops

A senior RF engineer and a master bench tech on staff.

Senior knowledge is retiring faster than you can hire it. Sentinel RF puts instant, source-cited answers from your own service library — plus the engineering math nobody wants to do by hand — in front of every tech on your bench.

Sentinel

The knowledge problem every shop has, and nobody staffs for.

The tech who could align anything with his eyes closed retires, and thirty years of judgment leaves with him. The manuals are still on the shelf — the knowing-where-to-look isn't.

Engineering capacity is worse. Most shops can't justify a full-time engineer, so link budgets get eyeballed, intermod gets discovered after the interference complaint, and bids go out underspecified.

Sentinel RF is staff augmentation, not another tool to learn: senior-level answers, grounded in your own documents, with the math done deterministically and every claim cited.

How it works

01

Load the library

Drag in the PDFs your shop already owns. Sentinel RF reads the structure — procedures, alignment tables, pinouts — not just the words.

02

Ask like you'd ask a senior tech

"Flat TX audio after board swap." "Fade margin on a 6-mile path at 460 MHz." Plain questions, in shop language.

03

Get a cited, checkable answer

Every spec and step points to the source document and page. Tune-up values always carry a reminder to verify against the manual revision for your serial range.

What your shop gets

Answers from your own library

Upload the service manuals, alignment procedures, and bulletins your shop already holds. Every answer cites the exact document and page it came from — no citation, no answer.

The bench knowledge that's walking out the door

Your senior tech knows why that repeater desenses every summer. Sentinel RF captures that kind of judgment in a form your second-year techs can actually use — grounded in your documents, not guesswork.

Engineering math, done right

Link budgets, intermod studies against your site frequency list, coax loss by run length and frequency, dBm/watts/µV conversions. Deterministic calculators do the math — checked, repeatable, showable to a customer.

FCC license data on tap

Look up callsigns, licensees, and frequencies by county straight from the full FCC ULS licensing database — no more clicking through the ULS site mid-job.

Safety-conscious by default

RF exposure, tower work, high voltage — answers flag the hazards a senior engineer would flag, ask for the measurement you skipped, and tell you when a question needs licensed engineering review.

Your documents stay yours

Shop libraries are isolated per tenant and never shared. A private deployment tier is available for shops with government or utility contracts that require data to stay in-stack.

See it on your own manuals.

Bring a service manual and a real question from your bench. If it doesn't earn its seat in the first fifteen minutes, we'll tell you.
