I remember in 2010-2011, my siblings and I were watching a show featuring the Kratt brothers when all of a sudden the EAS went off and it scared us so bad. We all collectively had nightmares about it for he next few months.
Those tones that are long in 2001 is because of how many areas were added to that specific test. When one alert is sent out, those tones at the beginning, which are FSK uses frequencies to spell out each county. Since there are a lot of counties, and each has a long name (why Ohio, Why?), the FSK will take forever. Generally, FSK is fast, but sometimes it’s long when it spells out that much. You will find each one is longer and shorter for each. The ‘attention tone’ in real alerts is also specific to that kind of alert. For example, civil emergencies and weather emergency tones are different. Pretty interesting, eh? The only thing I don’t know is how the screen and sound on radios and television goes blank or to a specific screen. Are tones at so high a frequency that humans can’t hear played prior to the audible FSK? Like how does the equipment know a test or emergency message is about to play? The reason I say that is because in the 2002 one you can hear tones prior to the FSK
"Since there are a lot of counties, and each has a long name" The counties actually arent defined using their name, instead using a 5 digit code if i recall correctly, the amount of counties still affects the length of the tone though. Also the equipment does use the audible FSK to know if an emergency message is about to play, in some cases it records the alert that it recieves from another station and then replays it, either that or the alert originates from the station itself, so it wouldnt need to know
@@meme-xn6wr yes it is, not sure if they record the whole message and then relay it or just wait for the first tones and then record it whilst relaying it at the same time, although my memory might be wrong and they might just relay it live, but I'm sure in some cases they would have to record it to not miss parts of the message.
@@meme-xn6wr I don't think so, it mostly just specifies the type of alert, counties, time of expiry and who sent it. Also looking at some compilations of radio eas tests it seems that a lot relay pretty much right after the first FSK is sent, so it records while playing back the recording (like I said before)

I believe the reason 2001 is super long is because they added so many counties for the test to be activated on.
That is correct, yes.
I know that
Specifically, they put in every damn county and not the entirety of the state of Ohio
@@somedude5422 ohio is still considered a state?
@@CedrinMedia Unfortunately..
2001: HOLY CRAP THAT IS LONG! i like the chill music before that though.

What about 2018???

@@GrumpzTheCat interesting, did not know it would record other messages from other stations. Very interesting. Is it the endec that handles that?

When I turned on the cc it was spanish
thats the only language the auto captions are available in lol
these are moreso differences between different networks and cable services than years.
Somewhat, yes. But if you look on the bottom left of your screen, each alert has a year of when they were broadcast.
@@newyorkgaming5283 my point still stands
@@RealObscureVGM Well, they’re neither more nor less so of difference between stations and years. They’re the same.
yall saying 2001 is long what about 2018
1999: Let's blow the people's ears
It skiped 2012 alert
Probably because they maybe kept the same EAs test until probably whatever year it was
why does the first one sound like it's from a horror game/movie
I regret watching this. I am terrified now ;-;
What does weekly test even mean?
1:19 how was like when I was a baby
2018 Start:LIBRDY LIBRDY
The 2019 one is so short
2018 is long to and so is 2001
I assume this person lives in Cleveland?
