Answer: Low Power Radio Articles

Hi,

We've found some articles but they're not necessarily about hurricane-affected LPFMs in the Louisiana area. I will be posting your question online. Other librarians may add comments and articles later, so you may want to bookmark the page.

Also, I couldn't find where on your website the articles you mention you have links to are found, so I couldn't compare the Lexis-Nexis search we did with your results.

It looks like there are some good articles. Please submit another question if you need a specific research request.

Another librarian worked with me on this question. Here is her message:

Here are some results from Lexis-Nexis Academic (I pasted together a few separate searches, from general headlines, newswires, North American, and World sources).
