The Census

On August 7th 1955, Tokyo Telecommunications Engineering (what would later transform into Sony) started selling transistor radios in Japan. Radios of all sizes and types become critical resources in an emergency. On this anniversary, remind people in your circle of influence about the importance of reliable ways to receive information. While you’re at it, look up and share with friends your local emergency radio stations. It’s helpful to mark radios with the local emergency station number (using pen or a sticker), and you can pre-tune radios kept specifically for emergencies.
