Test showing weather radios being activated due to the wisconsin statewide tornado drill on Thursday April 24 2014.
"THE TEST TORNADO WATCH WILL BE ISSUED FOR ALL OF WISCONSIN AT 1 PM CDT TODAY. THE TEST TORNADO WARNING WILL BE ISSUED FOR ALL OF WISCONSIN AT 145 PM CDT TODAY. THE TEST TORNADO WATCH AND TEST TORNADO WARNING DRILL WILL CONCLUDE AT 2 PM CDT" - NWS Milwaukee / Sullivan
Radios in the video include:
Oregon Scientific WR102N
GE 7-4845AAcu-Rite 8550RX
Even though the OS has a broken antenna (happened sometime almost 10yrs ago, the radio still works but didnt activate) The Acurite activated as expected, and the GE activated its alarm but requires a manual push of the weather button to hear full announcement.
