IPAWS National Test for all Cell Phones today. Checked the FEMA site for date changes or updates and apparently things are in order for today's drill.
This is the one system built in 2007 where the White House gained the ability to text the entire Nation and all Phones in range in a few moments for one National Problem or other requiring some sort of response.
You do not have the ability to opt out. Yes I did create a thread last month and like a dummy got it locked. So here is a reminder for today.

I consider it a bust. It hit the Satellite then the Radio but nothing on cell.
If I wanted to use humor and make light of it, they handed him the shiny button and POTUS took off to play with it. Hasnt found how to use it yet. ///Tease. -
Went off on 3 phones for us almost simultaneously.

Nothing but I am in a area that cell coverage is real bad, went there to see if it would get through, nothing else does but you know what they say about curiosity..

Fail.

US Cellular, coverage in the middle of anywhere, but my friend with Verizon found a new black hole today, so maybe there was more going on.
We were on a gravel road, no where near any towers, but US works the best around here. -
