Whoops, I meant monthly, sorry! I haven't had a living space where I can actually receive the weather radio broadcasts for a while, so I completely forgot how frequent they were.SilverThunder710YT wrote: ↑Fri Dec 31, 2021 1:34 amHold up for a second though, was it a Required WEEKLY Test or a Required MONTHLY Test?

Yeah, considering that info I think it's just the testing schedule.Ziginox wrote: ↑Fri Dec 31, 2021 1:37 amWhoops, I meant monthly, sorry!

Siren geek from South Texas. Although I've loved sirens for years, I've only recently begun digging into the rich history of civil defense. I also proudly own at least thirty weather band radios.

Re: NOAA weather radio test... at 0:45?!
i had something similar happen a couple days ago. a PA weekly test came on my TV a couple days ago at like 6:30 pm. i was very confused, because I live in harford county, MD...
also, last week I didn't get a test for my state. i don't know what mt. holly is on, but they really need to get their crap together.

If it was a statewide test, then I would think that it would be fine. If the screen didn't show Required Monthly Test, then I would believe that it would be fine. Over here in SC, it seems that most tests are conducted in afternoon or night. If the screen read Required Weekly Test, then it must've been an error from your local NWS office.

Fine, in the middle of the night? As for what it said on the screen, ten years ago when I made the original post I didn't have a weather radio with any of that functionality, it was a rather basic unit.StormanCharlie wrote: ↑Mon Jan 10, 2022 2:02 pmIf it was a statewide test, then I would think that it would be fine.

Last Sunday, there was an Amber Alert at 5:20 AM. This is the closest I've experienced to that. The abducted child & suspect were found later on.
