58 -- LONG RANGE BROADCASTING SYSTEM DUE 100100 POC Mr. Jeff Grogan (813) 282-0446 and/or Mr. Morris Schallenberger (813) 282-0446 E-MAIL: Mr. Jeff Grogan, jgrogan@technautics-tampa.com. Note: This announcement modifies the announcement that was published on August 3, 2000 @ 16:41, submission no. 482016. The United States Special Operations Command (USSOCOM) is conducting an analysis of alternative (AoA) study on long range, commercial, broadcast dissemination capabilities. Such studies require collecting market information on material capabilities that industry has developed, is developing, or will explore through research and development (R&D). Specifically, USSOCOM is looking for new technologies and concepts that would address opportunities for dissemination of data over long distances to foreign target audiences. The intent of this RFI is to obtain market survey information on the availability of systems or capabilities in the short term (next three to five years) and midterm (the next 6 to 10 years) timeframes. Material alternatives should address the dissemination of audio and visual information, using future communication capabilities and waveforms, and possessing common user interfaces consistent with commercial, broadcast industry devices. In addition, technologies and concepts that fold into the military's plans to be less manpower intensive (unattended sensors/remotely piloted vehicles), self-sufficient (low/no maintenance) and multi-platform/ multi-capable are highly desirable. Finally, alternative technologies should possess transmission security features to minimize vulnerabilities to intentional and unintentional communication interferences. This RFI seeks this information over the next 45 days. This RFI assures that the AoA considers all potential materiel solutions to resolve deficiencies in long range dissemination capabilities. Information should be sent to the following address: Technautics, Inc.
