I'm writing in regards to the FCC's Emergency Alert System. I am a
hobbyist trying to set up a system to listen for EAS broadcasts in my
area, but although I've read over the documentation on the matter
(11.31, 47CFR)*, I can't figure out what the frequency to listen on
should be. Can anyone offer any guidance on the subject?

Thanks,
Rob

Rob, in a cooperative effort with FEMA and NOAA, the EAS are bcst in
supported areas via the NWS weather radio system on 162.xxx nationwide.
