Case Studies
Coastguard Nelson Upgrades to Digital Dispatch with Mount Campbell Communications
Faced with unreliable analog radios and growing coverage needs across 10,400 km², Coastguard Nelson partnered with Mount Campbell Communications to deliver a cutting-edge omnicore® Express Dispatch solution

The Challenge
Coastguard Nelson previously relied on three separate analog radios, limiting coverage and efficiency. The outdated system made coordination over hilly terrain and remote marine areas unreliable—putting volunteer responders and mariners at risk.
The Solution
Mount Campbell Communications recommended and implemented the omnicore Express Dispatch Console by Omnitronics—a compact, future-ready solution designed for smaller teams and multi-channel coordination.
“I am pleased we have been able to provide Nelson Coastguard with a state-of‑the‑art and future‑proof system that will greatly enhance their response capability both internally and with partner agencies.”
— Lloyd Welsey, Managing Director, Mount Campbell Communications
