My thoughts exactly! If they were RMT and being forwarded then that's a different issue. For all the clock watchers, that worry that the world is coming to an end because FEMA is sending 3 RWT's instead of one or at times different than announced or even if the server is down  , get a life.

I agree. RWT's should be used whenever it's needed to test any link/service. It shouldn't matter to any reception/decoder system except to perhaps log it. I would hope no one has their decoder set to forward the RWT to air, and/or have it sent out a SMS or email saying it was received, I can see that as annoying.  I definitely encourage the RWT be used as needed anytime 24X7X365.

Why should it matter when there is a RWT from the IPAWS CAP server? I really don't see the big deal or any need for prior notice.
