[sbe-eas] Test Script in an RWT

[Ed Czarnecki]

11.51(b) says that "When relaying EAS messages, EAS Participants may
transmit only the EAS header codes and the EOM code without the Attention
Signal and emergency message for State and local emergencies."  So the
option is there to omit the audio and attention signal.  Which is probably a
useful subsection, in light of this TTS prohibition for CAP devices.  I
guess 11.51(b) covers the lack of audio from IPAWS (ducks for cover)...

So where is the rule that says "that local & state emergencies are not
required to use the attention signal at all. "?  What I see is a rule
(11.51(b)) that says you can dump the voice AND attention tone on
state/local alerts (but WHY you'd want to... is another question).  But that
would be compatible with the view that the existence of voice requires
attention tones.
