Sorry, I had intended to post this message here on the afternoon of the 14th, but didn't.  Most of you will have already seen it elsewhere, but for completeness:

Sage Digital ENDECs did not receive the weekly test messages from FEMA on Monday, January 13.  This was not a problem with IPAWS.  A security certificate used to authenticate IPAWS messages has expired in the ENDEC.  This will keep your ENDEC from receiving IPAWS CAP messages.  You must install a small update in your ENDEC to re-enable IPAWS messages.  Downloading and installing the update will take only a few minutes.

Mark your logs to note that you are aware that the RWT was missed, and that it was an equipment problem that has been corrected with a firmware update.
