@crablab@chaos.social Oh yeah, it's definitely a problem - and I don't know enough about the alert system to know how fixable it is within the regulations. My comment was more just to remark that they probably legally *couldn't* have just sent it at a lower severity:)
@joepie91 @crablab As far as I know it's not actually possible to indicate severity in a CB message. The 'Extreme Alert' is the channel it's sent on.
The standard includes types, but that's 'earthquake', 'tsunami', 'test', and 'other'. So for technical reasons it has to look this way. At least the standard that the law refers to.
