[EAS] MIA's

Just did -

We received a total of 100 responses - Many of which represented station
clusters.

I appears that the distribution of notice of this requirement could have
been better.

Certainly the process of handing this to SECC's to handle was a unique move
by the Commish - 

Thankfully we are able to handle it here due to the number of active members
of our SECC...Those states that have one-man SECC's may wish to expand their
membership so that more are available to carry the load.

Clay-

Did you receive mine?

I am hoping for an update from CBA this week on how many stations responded.
I received in my personal email more emails than I can count along with a
registered return receipt requested snail mail and a FedEx letter. I know
Jim Gabbert also got a bunch, and some sent their reports to both of us.

Not sure what we would have done if CBA had not stepped in to help Jim and
me.

Wondering how states, especially states with very large numbers of EAS
Participants like CA, fell about the FCC issuing an FCC directive where
volunteer SECC's had no mechanism in place to carry out the directive, no
standardized collection methods, full time day jobs, etc.
