Activation of the Texas Amber Network in Dallas County - EAS #2
Vložit
- čas přidán 15. 11. 2011
- The activation comes only a week after the national EAS test. 2 children were abducted from their home in Dallas at 7:00 this evening. You can tell my dislike for the Amber Tone because of the way I speak at the beginning of the video. This does include the EAS Header, the Amber Tone, and the EOM. The following station heard was KSCS 96.3 FM in Dallas/Fort Worth, Texas. They're a LP-2 station. They got their message from WBAP 820 AM/96.7 FM. They're the designated LP-1 station due to their 50,000 watt AM signal.

The sound is scarier than the kidnapping.
Not really though, considering that in this particular EAS amber alert, the kidnapper beat his 3-year old son to death.
After finding out that the weird sound existed (my husband is a synth composer and we do weird CZcams searches for sounds,) I had to find out about how it came to be. A very interesting history, and it's actually low-budget.
I know right!
True
YOU THINK THATS SCARY, LITSEN TO THE CANADA ALERT READY TONES AND THINK AGAIN
I hate that noise and alert
Whenever I'm sleeping with the radio on and this noise happens, I immediately go under my blankets and sheets e.e
SpiralHotDogz i hate it to
Me too I HATE that sound
Not trying to sound rude but the long beep sound is a sound made to get peaple to pay attention witch can mean to wake them up. The first two beeps are a code that satellites receipt to broadcast the chosen alert. Again I'm not trying to sound rude I'm just into ea s alert scenarios and know a lot about ea s alerts. Anyways have a good day!
102.9 is a good station tbh
WDRC?
Texas: Amber alert in the middle of the night when it's over 300 miles away
Also Texas: Tornado alert when it's only 10 miles away
Does EAS not realize how much nightmares i had every time this came on over the years thanks EAS!
You should thank it. It might even save a life.
_scoffs_ No. Talk about terrifying. I remember once begging my dad not to turn on the weather radio because it was more than likely I was going to hear this horrible sound from EAS. I can still remember not being able to sleep at night because I can hear it in my nightmares. Thanks for the everlasting nightmares EAS.
At least it gets your attention it crept me out also it's creepy as f*$k
I wanna know what phobia this is and how to stop it. Cause i have too lol! 😭
@@Mykecal_yogoshima I Got Say The EAS Amber Alert Has Been Issued For Missing Kids
The noise is a data burst, sent 3 times, and the 4th is an alert tone. Those honking noises are important for telling other EAS receivers, as well as weather radios, what to do. They're annoying as fuck, but they are absolutely important for getting the info out.
True
They are hauntingly creepy. As a lifelong resident of the Midwest... Those tones bring nothing but fear to me. Tornadoes.... fascinating and scary but the tones and the air raid sirens literally terrify me.
The tones you’re referring to are called SAME (Special Area Message Encoding) and are used to notify broadcasting equipment for all EAS activations. The sound that follows the alert tone is what everyone is reacting to. That noise is uniquely & specifically used for AMBER alerts in Texas. This is because Texas (mainly DFW metro) law enforcement was the first to use AMBER alerts after the kidnapping of Amber Hagerman. While the tone is no longer required to activate such alerts, Texas continues to use their original sound to notify the public.
@@alohafromthe3033yep that sounds is what people are creeped out by. It’s designed to be unsettling. This is what’s called a “tritone” in music theory which is between a perfect 4th and a perfect 5th. It is naturally really dissonant to the human ear and when you play it in sliding up like this it’s really jarring because it’s MULTIPLE tritones ascending upward. They picked the most horrible noise possible and I think it’s an interesting study in the psychology of music that people find this sound so scary. Our brains just do NOT like tritones.
@@herecomestreble24 That’s really interesting! Thanks for the insight.
How times have changed. Back then we had that scary AMBER Alert siren, nowadays we have a weird robot voice announcing it (and maybe the siren exists in various other portions of America)
The one that was issued in waxahachie tx about a week ago had these tones, wish i caught it but uploads exist.
The siren still exists. I experienced it about 10 months ago in Austin
Song: Love Don't Live Here
Artist: Lady Antebellum
Good song...
Does anyone have a high resolution of that creepy music
that plays after the typical Amber Alert Siren at 1:10?
That music has haunted me for years.
I have this one on my channel. czcams.com/video/fxmOX2O53hI/video.html
Me too
yes
same here
omg it is a creepy sound
I prefer the Alert Ready system because the tone is way less scary
Minion Lover16
I'd agree.
Minion Lover16 the voice creeps me out
+The sexy Witch
can make Earrape when used Audacity
NOPE
Black Like My Soul Agreed
That sound used to mess me up so bad for hours. It was definitely effective
I just got goosebumps hearing that siren
This sound gives me flashbacks to when I it woke me up in the middle of the night. I was seven years old and alone in my room. I would get nightmares for years to come.
The Texas Amber Alert Sound is so frightening that I feel like Chernabog from Fantasia (Aka the fucking devil) is somewhere unleashing hell fire onto Texas
In the event of a real emergency, when you’re in that situation, this is the sound you’d wanna hear.
i actually remember hearing this when i was a kid around the time. i had a radio i slept with while it was on. i wasnt scared of the regular SAME header tones, but the siren afterwards it was jolted me the fuck up. i just stayed down wide eyed for a solid 5 minutes.
I better not be the only one that is freaked out the most by the first beeps. Like in the middle of the night, those beeps scare me so bad. I hate them so much. *Cry*
SAME
I used to be absolutely terrified of those beeps as a kid. I'd listen to the radio while I slept too which made it worse for me, especially when they did monthly tests at around 4 AM.
Henrystrikesback Ironic cause im actually a fan of the EAS nowadays and ill soon be getting my own equipment. Who knew? But yeah weather alerts used to be the worst. Unpopular opinion but i think when they used a real voice (like on WBAP generated alerts) it'd be scarier because you'd get that deep scary voice telling you about a tornado coming straight for you lol. My radio station of choice at night was KLTY and i kid you not they used to air EAS alerts for EVERYTHING. Even for high wind warnings. Yeah, it was that bad.
Jade Ochoa those don’t bother me as much, I’m a computer nerd and know that’s just data but the sound at 1:10 is freaky
@@quarans08 It's funny you should say that because I've heard those 3 low pitched beeps are called SAME headers
S: Specific
A: Area
M: Message
E: Encoding
Honestly it sound like a noise In your head when you realise your forgot to do your homework
The 2 children were found alive and Garcia was arrested after escaping and running at cops with an object where he was shot and injured, however they discovered a 3rd child that was the daughter of his girlfriend. Sadly the 3rd was beaten to death by that monster. She was 3 years old
Any old saved news articles about it? It whould be interesting to see those articles
@@awesomecat3345 there you go
😢
MAN, EVERY TIME I HEAR THE AMBER ALERT, IT MAKES ME FEEL LIKE TO BARRICADE MY HOUSE BECAUSE HE/SHE MIGHT ABDUCT ME AND HIDE UNDER THE BED, PLUS I CAN'T SLEEP, SO, THE NEXT TIME I HEAR ANOTHER AMBER ALERT, I'LL TURN IT OFF.
I'M EVEN MORE SCARED IF AN EAS SOUND GOES OFF AT AROUND 12 AM - 3 AM
When i hear one at night i cant sleep
One time i got a Amber Alert at 2 Or 3 and scared the living daylights outta me
then a kid might die because of that
I got an eas test that scared me while sleeping. I ran to my parents
now im actually used to the tones i hear them at night if i leave my tv on cause the test is maybe at 3am
one day i was watching malcom in tha middle and then this tone came on. scared the fuck outta me
Those children were found safe, but there was a third child who was beaten to death by that monster... unbelievable.
1:15 oh god that siren though
czcams.com/video/RyIu5FWT96M/video.html
Same sound :/
0:34 The station acknowledged the incoming alert! You don't see that often
To be honest, that’s pretty neat
I wish they did that where I live
The amber tone is the sound of turning your bathroom light on to find a murder scene
The sound is scary as sh*t, even when the voice reminds you
okay so normal beeping sounds so now what----
1:10
HOLY SHIT!! 😨😱😱😱
*snuggles in bed with Nintendo plushies and Huddles all of them under a blanket*
toasty bunz i know right i do the same thing dude! I allways hug them all
toasty bunz i know right i do the same thing dude! I allways hug them all and not in the creepy weird way
I just hug my phone safely
Oh my Sirex Hor I must seek shelter
Lol
0:52 When you hated those screeches I'm kind of surprised the amber alert siren didn't make you start screaming lol, tbh I've heard those sounds and the amber alert siren so many times they all don't really scare me anymore.

96.3 transcript: 96.3 KSCS is the primary Emergency Alert station for North Texas. We now interrupt our programming to activate the North Central of Texas Emergency Alert System. Important information will follow.
I wasn’t born nor live nor lived in Texas, but if I heard this siren in 2:13 in the morning, I’d flip out and I would be in a coma
I fear no man
But that thing…
1:11
I T S C A R S M E
Everybody gangsta until the Amber Alert sound plays
R.I.P Headphone Users
Yep. Something wrong with it buddy?
***** u are one little 10 year old troller huh?
+RabbitRuler99 So? whats wrong with them
***** mhm its was somethin.
***** mk
i heard this sound last night on my radio. i curled up under my blanket while plugging my ears and stayed like that for at least an hour.
Sounds like an air raid siren. If I heard this while listening to the radio, I'd flip out.
1:12 will always make me remember 9/11 we heard this here in Texas when they thought there was a threat and it would happen every half hour until airspace was "closed"
1:12 This is the worst sound in the world. It is so unnerving.
No
A Global Alert Is The Worst Sound Though It Sounds Like The Global Alert Siren At 1:11
1:12
1:11
The sounds thump came on time.
Its 1 Am and this sound plays in every house in the Texas desert...

I don't Want To Survive I Want To Go Back to Old House
Jesus, so many amber alerts in texas
_that noise makes me spooked & the song in the beginning was noice to listen to XD 👌_
“The fuck am I getting into” same man… same
I remember this scaring the shit out of me on TV when I was 11
1:10 We ran out of time. We will see you next time on Who Wants to be a Millionaire! This is Regis Philbin bye bye!

LOL 😆
How am I ficking gonna play
I’m so scared of the amber alert sound
When the person is telling us to evacuate he sounds like a famous meme
I was not expecting that sireny sound after the 4th tone scared the shit outta my mom
This might be the more unpopular opinion but that lady antebellum song is actually creepier than the siren. I actually like the way that siren sounds. I think I’ve only seen like three amber alerts in my lifetime but where I live we don’t have that siren sound. All it is is the typical EAS beeps and then this robotic text to speech voice reads the alert
I've gotten used to the sounds, but yes I did have nightmares from it.
Actually, you're not in the wrong here. My home state (Michigan) sometimes gets these alerts. Yes, us michiganders do get other alerts, but the most rarest we receive are TSW's (Tsunami Warnings), etc, etc.
As a fellow Michigander, this is correct! where I live, we rarely even get severe storms/tornado warnings
The siren sounds like an h.o.r. Sirex
Yes
How did you know there was a amber alert
Everyone here : I hate the amber alert tone .
Me :I like it:D
Also me :wait so does that make me a Psychopath?
Ever since I knew about the EAS it’s given me PTSD and no matter. I’ll always get reoccurring bad dreams of it and the noises will never leave my head. I used to scream a lot when I was younger but now I just cry. It also made me terrified of the dark too
SAME AND THE BAD PART IS WHEN U THINK ABOUT IT SO MUCH IT ACTUALLY HAPPENS AND I CRY
I’m in Canada so when my phone goes off at 7am I hear a very scary alarm sound and it’s the worsy
@@livspc I’m so sorry! The Canada alert system is so scary! I start tearing up when I hear it 🥲
@@syd5099I remember On exactly January 6 2021 I woke up at 2:30am to that alarm going off right next to my ear full volume and I was scared shitless and I thought the world was ending or something. I checked and it was about a shooter in a place an hour away from me and he shot up a school just a few days prior. He got arrested a few days later and im so happy. That was the scariest alert I’ve gotten so far the rest were just Amber alerts. Welcome to New Brunswick ;)
@@livspc oh wow! That's insane. If that was me right now. I would've locked all doors and windows and keep thr blinds down. Make sure there's no lights on and stay away from anything for the rest of the night/day. I'm happy to hear that you're okay! But also, those alerts scare us so much. I would be crying if I heard the alert go off on my phone. I remembered it did one night when there was a flash flood warning. And my old phone would send the message out twice. So I got another message at 1:30am and I didn't even hear. Thank God, I would've cried if I did. I surprisingly slept through that even though I am able to wake up to alarms and my door opening XD.
In Kansas they use the beginning beeps for Tornado warnings every time and it used to scare the crap out of me when I was little but I got over it. Last night there was an amber alert and at first I thought oh look a tornado warning well I guess ill watch the sky and maybe go to the shelter if it gets bad but then I realize that tornadoes aren't really common until next month and just a split second after I come to that realization and think "What the crap is this?" BAM! DOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHH comes blaring through my tv and phone in unison and I ducked as if a frickin nuclear war was about to start.
Me too
As I am not American: question. Do devices automatically switch on during an emergency?
***** A local, regional, or national authority, like the police in this case, will send out an activation which includes those annoying beeps (those are needed to tell the receiver equipment where and what the message is intended for, who sent it out, when, etc.) Radio and television stations will relay the message to other stations.

PS- ( Canada uses the EAS, too.)
i recent got an EAS on my TV and the amber alert sound came one... scared the hell out of me.
I've only gotten an amber alert on TV once but I know it just did the regular eas sound
1:16 Perfect timing
How? 🤔
@@vhsmaniaman6986 obviously you don't realize things
@@vhsmaniaman6986 The time changed to 7:40 right when the siren stops.
@@deanthesavage ohhhh
@@vhsmaniaman6986 yea
I LOVE THIS VIDEO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I grew up with that noise scare the crap out of me every time
One of my local primary EAS stations is also on 96.3, namely WROV-FM. It also has the better music format out of all of our 3 Local Primary stations...
If you had a cable box, the 7:40 would change to E AS . Also usually in a EAS there is no jumpscare siren after the tones.
No fucking shit sherlock. Btw, The AMBER Tone does indeed play on tv, fucking furry.
I think the after alert is a Texas thing because I never head this before
sound scary
@@619xnomo jesus christ why are you so negative
If I’m not mistaken, this is a Texas-only thing.
1:10 Also used in Nevada Talk Network
(An All-of-nevada radio station)
Bro you’re not alone I hate the EAS noise
They make this sound at the freaking middle of the night where I live!
dude I hate that amber alert sound too I know how you feel
ehhh that noise gives me chils
you're annoyed by the sound but not annoyed by a child being kidnapped? fuck you
At least it gets your attention
Dude, fuck you.
so your annoyed by the sound but not the fact the child got beaten to death
This would scare the hell out of me. Such a nice song, then it sounds like the end of the world! 😔
If I hear the sound in real life I will have nightmares
I remember when I used to have cable, this would play but 10x louder. I would be horrified after each play.
"What the fuck am I getting myself into"
Good song
"God, what the fuck am I getting myself into?"
Where online do you get these alerts before they play on the radio, really want to get some action on my radios.
They don't use that sound here in Illinois, thank god! They don't even use the attention tone. Just SAME headers, message, and EOM. Simple.
If you're talking about monthly tests, not having the attention signal is most likely illegal on the part of the station(s).
Nice catch btw
And it's doing exactly what's it's made to do
1:10 should be in a horror movie
I have gotten an amber alert in the middle of the night too on my radio. Luckily the Kansas eas doesn't play the freaky amber alert sound.
Same for New Mexico
I thought it did. I remember one morning when WIBW-AM 580 in Topeka conducted an Amber Alert test, and it included the Amber Alert sound effect after the EAS Attention Signal.
2:15 we now resume regular programmi *finish the sentence*
Shouldn’t all radio stations carry the alert and not just one?
Do they happen to give public tours at all?
This sound is absolutely HORRIFYING, holy shit it grabs your attention
The sound at 1:10 is still till this day frightening.
Bender Rodriguez what is the purpose of that noise?
@@elevatorman5468 I think it's to specify that it's an AMBER alert. And it's a sound no parent ever wants to hear, even if it's not their child that was abducted.
That noise almost reminded me of THX. FUCKING DEEP NOTE!!!!!!
Carl the NPC from 0:00 to 1:11 What a great day to listen to the radio! Carl the NPC at 1:11: My day is ruined! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!
There wasn't even a description of the children.........just the name and age. What about race, clothes they were wearing, etc???
What the fuck am I getting into?
The amber alert tone is scary!
1:11 OH MY GOD HELP!
LacyCrusty Lol
1:10 😨😧😦😱
Oh hell. That scared me a lot.
The dallas amber alert sound effect sounds like the THX logo
Druuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhh boom
1:14 Alert sound is creepy.
Goddamn, I don't know about me handling with EAS, I used to be scared by the EAS alert on radios when I was a little boy.
This game be 3 nights of full nightmares
Dallas again?
The amber alert alaways scares me there is a reason why but that is a secret, the sound freaks me out to
im coming for you sweetie.... and ill have the radio playing the amber alert sound in the car, but no one will save you.
yea just listen to the sound a lot and the creepiness go's away it worked for me since i watch spcCranford and his channel is about receiving eas alerts
Were they found safe
