[EAS] NAB Report

[Steven C Johnson]

Gary,

Thanks for your excellent report.  I look forward to the rest of the series.  I'm curious about the comment of 35% of broadcasters and 80% of cable operators already have installed CAP equipment.  

In the cable industry, we are basically down to two cable-specific EAS vendors.  One is telling me they are accepting orders but not shipping until they pass FEMA conformance testing.  I am not aware of any product that has officially past yet; I haven't seen a list of conforming products.  

In discussions with some of the larger cable operators, I have yet to hear any claims that they are ready.  I think everyone is  waiting for the results of FEMA testing.  I do not see how the percentage of EAS participants ready for CAP can be anywhere near as high as stated.

Just my 2 cents.

Thanks.

Steve
