GAATES Emergency CAP Alert LED Signage Project
CFET CJHJ GAATES Signage Pelmorex Testing March 10, 2015
The pilot project test started out with a couple of bumps. My team worked through these problems enabling both radio stations in Tagish and Haines Junction to each receive and broadcast the emergency messages within the 2 hour testing window. The LCD screen in Tagish Recreation Centre also received and displayed the test emergency message.
