We recommend you program your car’s AM/FM radio, saving 1630 AM and 1640 AM into the memory, for easy retrieval.

Depending where we deploy the portable broadcast station(s), many residents will have the opportunity to listen to the information from inside their homes. We recommend you have a good, quality AM/FM radio as part of your disaster preparedness kit, along with extra batteries.
