Our state broadcasters association bought them a full EAS box, TFT911 with a grant and they do relay.  We are now looking for a source of funding to upgrade their box for CAP.  They will continue to relay anything they can and I have a couple of Wx radios at home that mostly stay silent.

Our NWS All Hazards Radio, WXJ-21 also blows the Duck Farts at almost any excuse. it is so bad that my Wife made me unplug the Weather Radio, and I am a Storm Spotter.
