Ozzie Taylor - Director, Business Services Thomas Manthei - Manager Bruce Herndon - Electronic Specialist / FCC Certified Jimmy Alford - Programmer Analyst II Tom Cummings - Electronic Technician / FCC Certified Kimberly Lee - Program Coordinator II Jamese Porter - Office Services Specialist III Radio Paging is a division of Business Services reporting to Associate Vice President Christopher Clifford. We maintain our paging system keeping in mind the mission of our communications system serving the health care needs of the Institution. Our paging terminal is a Zetron Model 2200. Our system consists of 10 (ten) transmitting sites strategically located to provide maximum coverage as well as redundancy. A problem with any transmitting site will cause us to suffer not more than a 20% loss of coverage. The system is designed to provide a maximum delay of 10 seconds once a page is entered. This statistical average is monitored by Radio Paging via computer every 5 minutes of the day. We have on call personnel available through the UAB Call Center at all times for system malfunctions. There are approximately 6,000 pagers on the UAB Radio Paging system serving the UAB community. Our activities are limited to the Institution by the nature of our FCC license.
