[BC] EAS Logs

Sat Apr 21 12:16:49 CDT 2007

Mike,

I must respectfully disagree with your disagreement...

Which operator signs when the station is unattended at the 
time of the test?

73.1870 allows entries by EITHER person or properly 
calibrated automatic system.

I found no mention of signatures or initials in any of the 
Part 11 rules.

The CHIEF operator does certainly have to sign, certify and 
if discrepancies are found investigate and resolve said 
discrepancies.

But no mention of signature other than the CO's weekly 
review.

Respectfully disagree.  All EAS operations require a full 
entry...which includes a signature, date and 
time.  Additionally, a printed tape of the EAS message is 
also required to be attached to the log or made available 
to review if kept in electronic form.

I believe all this is covered in Part 11 in addition to 
73.1820.

Scott,

No requirement for the operator to sign for EAS activations 
that I know of.  The only signature required [73.1870] is 
the Chief Operator at least once per week to review logs 
and certify that the equipment and logs are working 
properly.

Some form of log must be maintained such that the CO can 
sign it and say that all is well.  An actual printout of 
the EAS log does not appear to be necessary.  You must be 
able to present an EAS log for the specified period on 
request by whatever means.

That's what I thought. You make a template, print as many 
copies as
needed, then hand write the incoming and outgoing test.

Scott:

The intent of these sheets are to be printed out.. they 
leave room in
each
section (Type of alert or test rec'vd), etc for the on duty 
operator to
fill
in with pen by hand and sign.
