The nationwide EAS test is less than two weeks away so the FCC has released a handbook to help you figure out what to do. The November 9th test will be the first time the system is tested for a national alert. EAS is now used mostly for localized weather and Amber alerts. Broadcast attorney David Oxenford (pictured) says "as this is an important test of the EAS system, and will require broadcasters to report on their compliance, everyone should be preparing to take part - and checking their systems to make sure that they are fully functional - now."
