The Mid-State Amateur Radio Club, in cooperation with the Johnson County Emergency Management Agency, maintain a radio room in the basement of the Johnson County Law Enforcement Facility in Franklin, Indiana. The radio room, located feet from the county emergency management office, is in an ideal location to serve the EOC and the citizens of Johnson County, in the event of an emergency. The Johnson County Law Enforcement Facility is in a weather resistant building, with redundant power, water, and communications capability.
