Appropriate entries must be made in the broadcast station log as specified in Sections 73.1820 and 73.1840, indicating reasons why any tests were not received or transmitted. One Mart does not dispute the facts as described in the NAL, but does ask for mitigation based on the decreased revenue of the station.

Accordingly, appropriate entries must be made in the broadcast station log as specified in Sections 73.1820 and 73.1840, indicating reasons why any tests were not received or transmitted. A review of KFTU's station log from February 2, 2009, through September 1, 2009, revealed that the KFTU's EAS equipment was not operating properly.

The requirement that stations monitor, receive and retransmit the required EAS tests ensures the operational integrity of the EAS system in the event of an actual disaster. Appropriate entries must be made in the broadcast station log as specified in Sections 73.1820 and 73.1840, indicating reasons why any tests were not received or transmitted. 9. 3ABN disputes the facts as described in the NAL. First, 3ABN states it first became aware of the "alleged EAS problem at K43FO" on May 16, 2006 when the Los Angeles agent met with a "technical representative" of the station. 3ABN argues that the individual the agent met with

  • of the EAS header and EOM codes at least once a week at random days and times. The requirement that stations monitor, receive and retransmit the required EAS tests ensures the operational integrity of the EAS system in the event of an actual disaster. Appropriate entries must be made in the broadcast station log as specified in Sections 73.1820 and 73.1840, indicating reasons why any tests were not received or transmitted. On April 11, 2008, the inspection and investigation by the Denver agents revealed that the EAS equipment for KRAL(AM) and KIQZ(FM) was apparently not operational because no evidence was found demonstrating the functionality of the equipment to receive tests and alerts from the assigned EAS LP-1 and LP-2 stations.

The requirement that stations monitor, receive, and retransmit the required EAS tests ensures the operational integrity of the EAS system in the event of an actual disaster. Accordingly, appropriate entries must be made in the broadcast station log as specified in Sections 73.1820 and 73.1840 of the Rules, indicating reasons why any tests were not received or transmitted. 4. As discussed above, a March 18, 2010, Bureau inspection of Station KFSD's EAS equipment revealed that the equipment was not operational. Specifically, the audio link for Station KFSD's EAS equipment was not functioning, and this prohibited the station from transmitting a RWT and retransmitting a RMT.
