[BC] Skyline TV Promo

[Craig Bowman]

Has anybody on the list calling for the incarceration of people actually 
decoded the (believed to be) EAS data bursts to determine if they are 
actually EAS formated?  If it does not have a valid header it is not an 
EAS message regardless of the baud rate and it "sounding" similar to an 
EAS message.  Now, if it is a message and it is a RWT what is the 
problem?  Is there a rule against running an invalid RWT?  If so, most 
broadcasters would, at one time or another, already been guilty of 
this.  It is this swinging di*k mentality which makes people think 
engineers are from another planet!  Put away your guns and torches, 
these people are just trying to make a buck so they can pay our bills.

In the normal conduct of business, a licensee cannot review every word that will be spoken, every sound that will be transmitted, etc. The agency represented that the commercial was suitable for broadcast at the instant it contracted for the commercial to be run.
