Problem
300+ media outlets and 22 federal agencies competing for less than 250 MHz of clean spectrum in downtown DC. Prior inaugurations saw up to 37 on‑air RF hits, threatening live coverage and security comms.
Solution
Broad Comm deployed Frequency Coordination & Monitoring Suite: unified portal for 1,900 devices, 60 sensor nodes feeding AI alert engine, and a 24‑hour enforcement team equipped with spectrum analyzers and DF antennas.
Outcome
0 on‑air hits, 20% lower setup time, and broadcast delay reduced to < 200 ms. Event producers declared it the smoothest RF environment in Inauguration history.
“This was the first inauguration where RF wasn’t our biggest headache. Broad Comm set the standard.”
