Have EAS participants seen recent messages from the Maryland EMA through
the IPAWS EAS feed? Such as this mornings Child Abduction Alert (Nov 4)
or the Required Monthly Test (Oct 31)?
Both messages appear on the ipawsnonweather.alertblogger.com site, but
none of the EAS boxes from multiple vendors I manage saw the message on
the IPAWS EAS feed. Further, the few Maryland stations I monitor over the
air didn't appear to broadcast an RMT or CAE this week.
I see IPAWS messages from other sources without problems. Its only the
IPAWS EAS feed that is missing Maryland EMA messages.
Usually, when there is an unparsable CAP message, I find some indication
in the vendor's system log files on the EAS boxes. With the Maryland EMA
messages, there is no indication they were in the EAS feed from IPAWS at
all.
