FCC Schedules July 11 EAS and ETRS Webinar for Low-Power Broadcasters

The FCC’s Public Safety and Homeland Security Bureau has scheduled a webinar later this month to help educate low-power broadcasters on the Emergency Alert System.

The online session will also review the instructions on how to register and file in the EAS Test Reporting System (ETRS).

The FCC’s free webinar takes place at Noon CDT on Thursday, July 11, and will last about 45 minutes.

Pre-registration for the WebEx-based webinar is not required.

Interested stations can click here for the WebEx meeting or copy and paste https://www.fcc.gov/EAS-test-requirements-and-reporting in a web browser to see the event page.

Stations with questions about the event can email the FCC at: alerting@fcc.gov

The FCC will provide open captioning for the webinar.

The webinar will be archived at www.fcc.gov/live, and the  alerting@fcc.gov email will remain active afterward.
