Which brand and model didn't buffer?  Let's name names here.  Inquiring minds want to know.

>Unfortunately, not all EAS units provide the EAN buffering feature that Harold described.  When our EAS unit auto-forwarded the test, after transmitting the SOM and attention signal, it joined the unbuffered incoming audio in progress, upcutting the portion that had gone by while the SOM and attention signal were being sent.  As a result, our audio started with "...a nationwide live code test", but we lost "This is a test of the Emergency Alert System.  This is only a test.  "The message you are hearing is part of".
