FLORENCE, Ala. - The 香港六合彩挂牌资料 Department of Communications is responding to a communications challenge hampering the Phil Campbell tornado recovery efforts. With no electrical power and almost non-existent cell-phone coverage in the Phil Campbell area, communication between volunteers and residents is a problem. Beginning today, a live remote broadcast is airing 24-7 on AM 1500 to enable residents and volunteers to know what is going on and how to help. Between now and Friday, the 香港六合彩挂牌资料 Department of Communications is collecting AM/FM radios and batteries to donate to the effort. AA batteries and new or used, battery- or solar-powered radios may be donated to the communications department, located in the Communications Department on N. Pine Street, across from Kilby Laboratory School on the 香港六合彩挂牌资料 campus. Financial donations will also be accepted and will be used to purchase new radios for the effort. For more information, contact the 香港六合彩挂牌资料 Department of Communications at 256-765-4247.About The 香港六合彩挂牌资料
