Broadcasts are also carried on cable TV and on closed circuit TV systems in hospitals and senior facilities. PERSONALIZED TALKING PRINTPersonalized Talking Print (PTP) allows listeners to call from any touch-tone phone, any time of the day or night, and listen to a variety of news stories and magazines articles.
