    As an Emergency Alert enthusiast... here is a little tip, This one says it was originated by an “EAS Participant” but it would have been originated by “A Civil Authority”

      True

      Any originator can issue any alert at any time. I’m an EAS Enthusiast as well and this is incorrect.

    I love fictitious EAS scenarios but as a retired broadcaster I'm a bit concerned about unintended consequences.

    As an EAS enthusiast, I can say that I would evacuate as well. (It couldve been a civil authority instead of an EAS participant, though...)

    • @seaboardspastic

      But there wasn't. Power Plant meltdowns can't affect an entire state (more so a town or a county) unless it was a combustive/intense meltdown, or if several went off.

    It says EAS Participant!!! It was not a hacker, someone can buy an ENDEC online and send alerts!!!!!! Please let the public know

    • @seaboardspastic
      @seaboardspastic Před 4 lety +4

      It was a hacker. Any operator that activates an EAS ENDEC Decoder will be automatically considered an EAS Participant by default on the system, unless it were altered for certain ENDEC systems.
