Fake EAS Test

I wasn't expecting my original real EAS test to go over well enough to get close to 5,000 views, and I saw so many people upload their own fakes, so I decided to make a very convincing fake myself.

First, I got the tones and made a fake voice announcement with Microsoft Narrator set to Microsoft Mike, using "Telephone Quality" in Sound Recorder.

Then, using MSPaint, I made a card with white computer letters on a red background. The font I used was "Glass Gauge". Fixedsys looks too much like DOS.

After that, I put it in Windows Movie Maker with the sounds I made before. I added ten seconds before the sounds began to get everything ready for the TV.

Finally, I loaded up the resulting video into Media Center and set my PC to output to TV. After hitting play, I waited about 7 seconds and then plugged the other end of the TV-out cable into an RF modulator hooked up to a TV set to channel 3. After it was over, I quickly unplugged the wire. Shooting it with my digital camera, you would never have known it as a fake if I didn't throw in the last bit.

"Northern County" is a ficticious county. I did not know the exact format of what the guy says, so I just randomly threw in everything I remembered from what I heard on the radio.

Hope you enjoy it. It took a lot of thinking to make this.

@DorvellTStewart The guy who made a video had a real TEST video, and then he made a fake EAS, but he changed it to a severe weather warn.

Only thing that is wrong is the scrolling screen which is missing. Very good though
