...Live NOAA Weather Radio Test with Larimer Emergency Telephone
Authority...

On Monday, May 13th at 6 PM Mountain Daylight Time, the National
Weather Service Forecast Office in Boulder, Colorado will conduct
a live NOAA Weather Radio test in coordination with the Larimer
Emergency Telephone Authority (LETA). The test message will
originate with LETA using the Demonstration (DMO) code which
will not trigger the Emergency Alert System (EAS) and will not
activate older NWR receivers with the 1050 Hz Warning Alarm Tone.
The test message will be broadcast one time only on NWR stations
WXJ45, KEC76, WXM92, WXM50, and WXM51. NOAA Weather Radios
equipped with Specific Area Message Encoding (SAME) and programmed
for Larimer County (location code 008069) will generally default
to silence for this test message; this means the receiver will not
activate with a warning tone, although your radio device will
still visibly light up to highlight that a test message was
received.

When you use our homepage, www.weather.gov/bou, you will also see
Larimer County highlighted for the DMO test message.

In the event severe weather is forecast or occurring on May 13th,
the test will not be conducted and will be postponed to another
day and preceded by another Public Information Statement.
