[EAS] NWS on IPAWS

[Skinner, Jim]

Brain Trust:

As I understand it all local NWS alerts will be converted nationally
into the IPAWS system some day.  They are already doing it with high
priority CMAS for cell phones (as of last week).  I do not know of a
launch date for NWS/EAS to IPAWS. 

Does anyone know if the NWS weekly tests will be passed through IPAWS?
Since those are local will every broadcast station and cable system in
the USA be covered by a NWS RWT?

Even with CAP technology Part 11 still requires us to conduct weekly
tests. NWS conducts weekly tests. The least the Feds can do for the
first year of CAP, is to run weekly tests....
