Radio station Needs requested

Radio stations often get overlooked in needs assesments. We are looking for information regarding the extent of damage to radio stations. How many can still be heard on the air? Are stations broadcasting useful information? Do members of the affected community appear to have radios? Access to batteries?

We hope that the radio community will be able to support local stations so they can be a voice for passing information out to the community.

Can I remind you to take an AM/FM radio with you if you go? Post a note to let us know what you are hearing.

Many thanks,

Mike
