The public radio system serving the Chester area is now up and running. In the event of an emergency, information would be broadcast through this system.
Take a moment to set your car radio to 1630AM. The server for the link can only handle about 100 users at a time, so there may be a wait in accessing. The intention is for users to tune in on a car radio and not via computer during power outages.
