FOR EXAMPLE: In the event of an
emergency alert (OFFICE OF EMERGENCY SERVICES) through Alert
FM, those who have such devices should relay the
information out on EROC 9 AND ON HAM CH 58 AND
HAM CH 55 so as many people as possible become aware of
the emergency alerts. Be sure to quote the
Emergency Alert exactly and do NOT give your opinions.
Testing of the ALERT FM in May, 2023, showed
that many residents do NOT have the ALERT FM system.
