    Ok, I just need to clear this up.
    The EAS is great and all but it is Firetrucking ANNOYING.
    Random Moment *Alert comes on screen* You know what LOUD MUSIC TO BLOCK IT.
    Its for emergencies but seriously my WR-120 Weather Radio went off I was WHAT THE FIRETRUCK!

    But seriously, Its so loud like come on NOAA.

    If you hate this post below.
    We just had a test at 9:50AM on 1/17/2014
    I guess its every month testing.

    Did you have the test on 1/17? Post in comments below.

    It's not that bad... all EAS tests in the USA are the same. Just turn off the TV for 30 seconds or mute it.

    It needs to be loud. If there was a real emergency, you need to hear it.

    Anyway, I barely watch any TV, and I use YouTube/Dailymotion to watch MLP.

    I don't always watch tv. But when I do... the EAS Test pops up.

    MLP episodes keep getting taken down and re-uploaded on YouTube, but on Dailymotion they aren't being taken down.
