>Having heard Los Angeles' monthly tests nationwide because a particular
satellite TV provider uses LA as the source of its monthly tests, I
understand your complaint. >After hearing LA's monthly test, I think elected
officials should not be allowed to voice monthly test messages; and only
allowed to voice actual alerts.

How are officials going to learn how to present actual alerts if they can't
practice? The lousy EOC audio is a separate issue and should be addressed by
both the broadcasters and the LA County Sheriff's Department. Officials need
to train on using both Legacy and CAP EAS.
