California Stations Explain Conelrad This Week

One hundred fifty California radio stations explain Conelrad the attack warning voice of Civil Defense. Ernest S. Dixon, regional coordinator for Los Angeles and Orange Counties, urges everyone to know the Conelrad sound so they recognize the emergency system if activated after an alert. He notes reduced power will affect broadcast quality and urges experience now. Jump transmission shifts beams to map the compass every few seconds to hinder enemy guidance. Conelrad frequencies are 540 and 1240 kilocycles.
