[IRCA] (LATE) Washington, DC, Emergency TIS 0n the 4th



         The Associated Press reported, on 7/1, that Washington, DC, would 
be testing their emergency evacuation plan by using the city's Highway 
Advisory Radio (HAR).

         After the fireworks on the Mall ended, both drivers and 
pedestrians were to be directed to the evacuation routes through the use of 
the city's HAR operating on 1650 kHz. {The station is WQAJ522 and there are 
six (6) transmitters licensed for operation on 1650 kHz. mh}

         The test was to have lasted about 45 minutes.

         A fine plan....if pedestrians, bicyclists, motorcyclists, etc 
happened to have an AM radio handy. Just a thought, DC.

         Mike
