I believe you have my information. What does an EAS test look like? Do I get a phone call, or what? Thank you.

I doubt this has changed.
In the past, you recieved a text message on up to 3 cell phone numbers.
You also received the same message via email for up to 3 email addresses.

I DO need to update my phone number but I can't find it in my account/profile

You don’t. It’s stored in a different database on our server. You need to talk to Green Co.

I got an email about the soft wear changeover a week or so ago. I guess everyone else did too. That was sort of a test of the system.

I tried a conversation with GreenCo . . . but, have heard no response. I'm assuming he's getting swamped right about now, though.

Unless things have changed, signing up for the EAS is completely separate from joining TB2K.

It's a completely different piece of custom software written just to send the alerts. I don't think some here understand that.

You had to sign up separately, only via PM, with one of the Mods (now Green Co).

You are absolutely 100 percent correct

I was wrong

Thanks to Green Co for checking out my info. Didn't want to put an unnecessary email in the inbox.

Just checking to see if the EAS was sent out. I didn't receive an email or text and I know I signed up for it several years ago.

I didn’t either. Perhaps it hasn’t happened yet.

Oops, i was a second or two late. Thanks for the update, Dennis.

Good thing there was a test, of the applicable emergency broadcast system, and that the kinks will be worked out.

Thank you.

As Dennis said, we are having some problems with our two systems working together. Our server Admin was on it for over 9 hours today... so far. Some members I was able to update, many not. Bear with me, when I do get you confirmed, you'll be notified. I appreciate your patience.

ETA: I do keep all requests until fulfilled. If you sent a request, I still have it, & will until complete.

Question. I may be confused but are all the requests we're supposed to have given, just for the new-comers or does that include everybody since we moved here?

I'm assuming my information transferred over and I don't need to update because nothing changed since then.

If your info hasn't changed, it is still the same on the server. Remember, The EAS system is completely different from TB2K. Most all of the requests I've had from long time members to "check" their information, required no changes.

If you haven't moved, changed emails or cell phone numbers in the last year or however long you can remember, it will still be the same on the EAS

Like me.. nothings changed in 20+ years...... except I now have GREAT grand kids.

That's what I thought. I just wanted to make sure.

Thank you so much, Green Co.!!!

Whatever came of the proposed EAS test? I understand it glitched and was being worked on, but wonder if I missed the latest update on the situation. (LOVE the new search, btw... was finally able to find this thread again - can search for three letter terms!)

As Packy said, coordinate with local members in your area. We have a *great* MAG area here on this platform.
