[EAS] CAP EAS Logging Question

week, but these were "ALL NE" tests as will be the RMT.) But as the saying
goes; "All emergencies are local."
If cap cannot work on a county level, then what is the point of all of this
monkeying around we've been doing over the last couple of years?
Does that mean it would be pointless to issue an weather related EAS alert
on anything less than an "ALL STATE" level?

Nevada has three EAS Operational Areas. Even with our 50,000 flame-thrower
PEP AM stations, no one broadcast signal covers all three, or even two
areas...the state is that big. Fortunately, our disasters seem to follow the
same geographic divisions as the op areas...We will conduct our first CAP
RMT Tuesday so we will see how Locator Code programming affects the
distribution of the test.
