RMT schedule now available
posted on 12.10.2007The 2008 EAS Required Monthly Test schedule is now available.
The schedule is set annually by Texas' two Primary Entry Point (PEP) Stations: WBAP-AM Dallas-Fort Worth and KTRH-AM Houston.
The PEP stations initiate the RMT on the Tuesday of the first full week of each month. Other EAS regions receive the RMT via either a daisy chain relay or by the Texas State Networks' satellite dissemination.
If a station doesn't receive an RMT, the FCC requires the station must make ?a good faith effort? to determine why it was not received. It is sufficient to make an inquiry to the local primary station and note the inquiry in the station's EAS log.
