39 Mobile Phone Boosters for Brigades Allocated
Monday, 4 Jul 2022
The RFBAQ has teamed up with Telstra, RFSQ and a very generous donor to supply and install mobile phone boosters in brigades across Queensland.
With an initial distribution of 39 devices we are looking for more brigades with a need of enhanced Telstra coverage to apply.
The initial brigades have supplied their locations and Telstra is doing an offsite connectivity test ahead of the devices being distributed. RFSQ is very generously covering the cost of the installation.
