The National Weather Service @NWS is collaborating with DOGE to modernize its nationwide Weather Radio system. Of their 1033 transmitter sites, ~380 still rely on copper lines from the 1960s. 

These lines are expensive ($17M/yr) and faulty. For example, Los Angeles’ T1 line goes down twice each year for 2-14 days. Last week, the team flew out to upgrade from copper to wireless.
