Charleston Amateur Radio Club plans dress rehearsal of emergence
The Charleston Amateur Radio Club hosts a 24 hour dress rehearsal at the Field Day site to test emergency communications. Four transmitters will be deployed on a mountain top south of Kanawha Village, with Dr J H Thornbury leading and amateur stations across the region joining in contact tests and emergency message relays. The exercise underscores ready response when commercial power fails, citing recent storms and floods as context.

Philippi Seeks Lower Electricity Rates
The Public Service Commission heard Philippi’s petition to reduce electric rates by about 10 percent. The town would align its domestic and commercial charges with Monongahela Power Co. in nearby areas, risking $7,500 to $8,000 yearly in lost revenue. Officials cited increased consumption and a favorable power contract as the basis for the cut.
