About Us
About Pasco ACS
Pasco County ACS is entrusted with the mission to provide auxiliary communications as well as interoperability communications for Pasco County and its Partners.
We reach out into the community with educational information about storm preparedness, and Amateur Radio.
Many of our members maintain BSA scouting, Amateur Radio Merit Badge advisor status, to develop future Amateur radio enthusiast and Auxcomm team members.
Always Moving Forward
Pasco ACS encourages modernization and innovation.
In order to stay relevant in a highly competitive field of Emergency Communications, Pasco ACS incorporates technologies to move data as well as voice. 44.net IP tunnels, transports our data between repeater sites. Winlink Gateways connect many communities. Mesh networks of LORA and HALOW, HAMWAN, assist our teams with connectivity in the field, to benefit partners such as Lake Jovita CERT, and Traveler's Rest community.
Future Projects
Pasco ACS in partnership with Fresh Start 4 Pasco, a ministry based community outreach and disaster recovery coordination 501C3 charitable organization as our fiscal sponsor, have but one goal, to help those without a voice.
To do our best, Pasco ACS needs to grow with the community. Our equipment is aging, and shrinking in number, yet the community we serve has exploded in growth, and a youthful demographic, is so intrenched in technology, that a small disruption could isolate communities from the agencies that they need assistance from.
We strive to educate, and update. To bring digital connectivity, voice connectivity to serve the residents of Pasco County. To connect youth with the past, present and future of Amateur Radio.
That's the Pasco ACS mission, to connect.
