The Vault 88 Radio Beacon is a radio station in the Fallout 4 add-on Vault-Tec Workshop. It can be received after starting the quest Vault-Tec Calling, provided the player has the add-on installed and is at or above level 20.
Gameplay
This station is an emergency broadcast from Vault 88, calling for the help of Vault-Tec. The broadcast has likely been triggered due to a group of raiders trying to break their way into the vault. After listening to the message, the location of the vault will be marked on the map and the quest Vault-Tec Calling will update.
After having activated the vault radio, the broadcast will consist of a brief post-War advertisement for Vault 88 recorded by Overseer Barstow as well as the vault's location, and instructions for application.
After the Sole Survivor has become overseer, the broadcast will consist of a more enthusiastic advertisement from Clem, encouraging anyone listening to come live in Vault 88, followed by the vault's location.
Location
The signal can be listened to anywhere in The Commonwealth. One can tune to it in the radio tab of the Pip-Boy.
The Vault 88 radio beacon broadcasts on frequency 92.0 and with a transmitter range of 500000 units.
