Interesting, I had no idea that was even possible but my old TV still has knobs you have to use to change the channel then adjust the rabbit ears and the aluminum foil to tune in. I dare them to try that with me. Are you sure about that? Seeing as how rabbit ears don't receive digital broadcast, as all OTA TV is now. Huh? Didn't we do the whole switch to digital thing? Old TVs need the digital converter to receive stations now, right? |

Could it possibly be a malfunction of an EBS system or test on a particular carrier rather than some sinister WH plot?

Résistance is futile. The more you resist the more they make it hurt. It's a government job for somebody. |

Not yet, I freaking hate UVERSE. I'm dumping them once I figure out something better--the only thing good is that service doesn't ditch during storms, when I need it to work for radar alerts |

Wiki: An Emergency Action Notification (SAME code: EAN) is the national activation of the Emergency Alert System (EAS) and can only be activated by the President or his/her representative (i.e. the Vice President).[1] The Emergency Broadcast System (EBS) also carried the Emergency Action Notification. It has never been used by any President since its creation. View Quote Apparently that isn't exactly true. . . Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |

Well, this has been enlightening. I never watch mainstream "news" programs. These people are really retarded! Pathetic.

So it's force tuning to a station with no emergency message? Das vierd.. View Quote Cable TV version of EBS that was put into service a few years ago. OP's cable provider has a fuckup of some sort causing that to happen since this isn't something happening nationally. OP needs to call cable company and raise hell with them over this. At least you didn't get one of those mass phone calls on your cellphone from Zero to go along with the TV message. |

What's a TV?
Is that one of those brain-eating propaganda infusion devices I've heard about? WATCH OUT! Here comes Honey Boo Boo! |

My tv is normal. I have rabbit ears as well so no cable co to screw anything up, just the big 3.

This appears to be only affecting Uverse subscribers in Georgia.
Well apparently it must have started in Georgia and is spreading like ebola to other states. |

If this is for real, sounds like ATT's EAS system has been hacked. While a EAS unit may screw up in some way there are to many coincidence's here to believe it to be a system failure.
EAS, Emergency Alert System. it's the same system that gives weather alerts and is designed to give the president access to the general public on all channels and stations, TV and radio IN AND EMERGENCY. |

There have been frequent "tests" of the EAS in my AO. Used to be monthly at about 3:45 AM, but there's been 3 in the past three days. They last longer and are formatted slightly differently. The test yesterday was a green bar accross the top of my screen telling me there was another test being conducted... Given the unique format and that it was at 3:00, I thought it was time to FO...
It would seem that an announcement is forthcoming. |
