[EAS] Update on EAS Unit Reprogramming for National Test

[Dave Kline]

On the SAGE (legacy at least) when you set the incoming filter for  
EAN, and when you select an area, wouldn't selecting "ANY" do the  
trick for a national?
That is if the SAGE didn't already override the FIPS code for an EAN?
