2. Would this enable more local weather alerts, too?

Seems to me I read somewhere that the packaged airwave monopolies don't cover very local forecasts..
like tornado warnings and suchlike.
Plus all the other good local coverage that people should have. (It's THEIR AIR, after all!)
I signed it, of course.
