[EAS] NWS OOOPS

[Harold Price]

Even if we assume that this was an 1822 that had strict time turned 
off, the date in the relayed message would have been old and would 
have shown up in the logs as old.  All of the logs I've seen show a 
correct date.

No EAS device would change the date of a message it was relaying.
