13 June 2012 - Wednesday - 1418 PM - pager alert signal transmitted by Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency - I received it via 153.965 R (part of a statewide network of linked VHF highband repeaters)
The announcement went something like this - MEMA to Seabrook Planning Zone communities - prepare to copy a actual event message on Form 114 - this is not an exercise - 1 minute later - Amesbury are you ready to copy? - Amesbury is ready, Dispatcher Smith - Merrimac are you ready to copy? - etc - approx 6 or 7 communities replied - unusual event declared at Seabrook Station at 1343 PM - emergency initiating condition is HU3 - I think that each community then acknowledged the message - MEMA said "no further info" and signed off with his name --------------------- Now that I look back at this, I see that 35 minutes elapsed between issuance of the alert and dissemination via 153.965R -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "massfire" group.
