"According to Markey, AM radio operates at lower frequencies and longer wavelengths, enabling it to pass through solid objects and travel further than other radio waves — a feature not shared by #FM broadcasts. As a result, FEMA’s National Public Warning System — through which #FEMA delivers critical safety alerts to the public — operates through broadcast AM radio stations."

The shift to #EVs is slowly killing off #AMRadio — and that’s bad for #EmergencyBroadcasts
