[EAS] A question...

[Marlin Jackson]

A mailing list is a good idea. We have an LECC list server for our EAS plan area. All stations in the area can be on the list. As an LP-1 FM with 74 other stations monitoring and an LP-1A AM station with 26 stations monitoring I send out a report of the success or failure ASAP after an RMT. It's also used for confirming RWT's, meeting notices etc.

        I have also set up a mailing lists for Southern
        Arizona, for example, so instead of 15 people calling
        the LP-1, posting the query/response can
        save a lot of time.

        Sometimes it is even used - and it works!
