“Control, We've Got a Situation”: How CARRBORG Radios Saved the Night at the Music Festival
It was 9:42 PM on a Saturday night.
20,000 people swaying under laser lights. The bass thumped. The drinks flowed. And I, as Head of Security, was sweating bullets.
An intoxicated attendee had climbed the lighting rig on Stage C. A fall from that height would be fatal—and panic could spread fast.
Cell signals? Jammed. Too many people.
My handheld radio? Not strong enough.
So I pulled out my CARRBORG 4G walkie talkie—our new secure communication unit.
“Control, this is Bravo 3. We’ve got a climber. Stage C. Need medical and top team now.”
Instant response. Crystal clear.
Within two minutes, the climber was safely down. Security covered the perimeter. Crowd never noticed a thing. Show continued.
That night, CARRBORG radios didn’t just work—they proved essential.
Why Our Entire Event Team Uses CARRBORG Radios Now:
-
4G LTE Backbone: Works even when cell towers are overloaded.
-
Encrypted Channels: Keeps comms private and secure.
-
Multi-Unit Group Control: I manage 25 radios from a single laptop.
-
Battery That Lasts All Weekend: No mid-show swaps.
-
Built-In SIM & 1 Year Free Plan: Plug and play. No surprises.
Whether you run crowd control at festivals, secure public venues, or manage high-stakes logistics—you need a radio system that performs under pressure.
