If I'm not mistaken, the FCC will slap you with a hefty fine for doing something like that.

THIS should be the test tone.

Is that a SAME encoder????

[Geno2733]

rofl. Did you actually issue that test?? Or was it a Closed Circuit run?

Anyways, I didn't think you could record audio on those things. lol

@Geno2733 Yep. All EAS encoders have 2 minutes of audio storage to record the emergency message from the issuing station.

This particular unit has an additional 40 seconds of non-volatile audio storage, as part of the cable TV package.

I didn't issue this test... this is a unit that I have on the bench at home. I work for an LP-1 station in NYC, though.
