i heard from Wikipedia that Dish Network would be doing the EAS thing that Cable is already doing starting May 31, 2007. so i got the EAS ogg files off of Wikipedia and then converted them and then i used that AT& T Natural Voices site to get the voice over, since i didn't want to do the voice myself. and also i search on Yahoo.com to get a Dish Network logo to put on this video. i edited this with Windows Movie Maker. i did this to kill time, and at the same time to tell people who have Dish Network (just like me) that this will happen when the EAS activated for weather and amber alerts. this is a mockup of an EAS for a tornado warning. for a example your watching "ESPN Sportscenter" when out of nowhere the EAS goes off and screws up your tv show that you are watching. get ready people with Dish Network. this will happen on a regular basis. for the weather bulletin or amber alert. the one alert type i pick to do this is an tornado warning.

Due to chain letters, spammers, and trolls who start flame wars and call people racial slurs, all comments will be approved by me only.

to make your own mock up using the voice to speech audio, here's a link to two of the best ones.

  • where did you get the voice

  • @raceing91 read the description, it has a link to the site.

  • The voice in the beginning sounds worried

  • @patchspiritkwolflion i noticed that myself and it's weird how a computer Text to speech audio program/site could make it sound like that.

  • Can I ask yall somthing? WHY AND THE FUCK DOES IT HAVE TO ALWAYS SAY FORT WORTH!!! GWAD I LIVE THERE!

  • that's because the North TX chapter of the National Weather Service (the people who issues severe weather alerts) is based in Fort Worth. other times alerts in our area are sometimes issued by the National Weather Service's National Storm Perdiction office in Norman, OK.
