[EAS] FEMA to do webinar on results of national EAS test

[Adrienne Abbott]

The problem is...the EAN code comes designed with certain functions that
other codes don't have. These include the top priority over other
activations as well as the lack of a two minute time limit and the ability
to spread to all locations across the country. NPT and NIC don't have these
characteristics and really wouldn't tell us what we need to know about the
capability of the PEP network. As I understand it, these event codes would
have to be programmed for each state and it would take several activations
to get them to every state in the country. Not overly practical.

A good idea.

While I was reviewing the settings for my GR box, though, I ran across a 
header code called NPT = National Periodic Test... and one called NIC = 
National Information Center.

What ever happened to those codes?  I would have thought the NPT would 
have been the code to use...
