[EAS] EAS software, IPAWS updates, certificates, etc.

[Ed Czarnecki]

Again, if you are already at v3.1, you can stick with this version if you so desire. 

If you are still on v2.6 (or earlier), then you do need to go to v4 1.  We no longer sell v3.1 separately (and haven't for some time).

Version 3.x series software has been fully deprecated.

>You might also need to have a talk with your sales/tech people and vendors.  One of my clients called and asked about the update to meet FEMA's new requirement.  He left the conversation understanding that he needed v3 AND v4.  No mention that v3 was compliant by itself.  Then when he called BSW to order, their sales person was told the same thing.  Most stations are only concerned with being compliant as cheaply as possible.
