We try to relay most alerts, however sometimes alerts may conflict if two come in at once, here is how we prioritize our alerts.
Currently we are monitoring multiple sources for emergency alerts over two SAGE EAS ENDEC Model 1822. All the sources are listed in the table below:
Monitor 1 | Monitor 2 | Monitor 3 | Monitor 4 | Monitor 5 | Monitor 6 | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Callsign: | KNBJ | WXM99 | KEC65 | WJON-WSCN | ENDEC #2 | Computer |
Frequency: | 91.3 MHz | 162.425 MHz | 162.550 MHz | IP Radio | AUX | AUX |
Modulation: | FM | NFM | NFM | AAC | N/A | N/A |
Note: Monitors 1 and 2 are mandated in the Minnesota EAS Plan. The FCC Mandates that our station MUST monitor these sources. Monitor 1, KNBJ is a Secondary Entry Point for Emergency Action Notifications, and is a Primary Entry Point for the Minnesota HSEM. WXM99 is a local NOAA weather radio station, and is used to relay weather warnings and local alerts for the local EAS area. WJON-WSCN is an IP Radio station that is a source of a good number of relayed warnings on this station.
Monitor 1 | Monitor 2 | Monitor 3 | Monitor 4 | Monitor 5 | Monitor 6 | |

Callsign: | WNG610 | KZZ29 | WWG98 | Computer | Not Used | Not Used |

Radio Random (KBJIWX) is not responsible for any activations of the emergency alert system over FCC-regulated broadcast mediums. Furthermore, KBJIWX should not be used as a monitor for radio stations or cable systems, please consult your state’s local EAS plan for more information regarding what station you should monitor.
