Just FYI, next Wednesday there will be a test of all cell phones in America that will make them beep at 2pm Eastern.

Just thought I'd pass that along in case anyone's got a hidden cell phone for any reason.

edit: some additional info available in the comments; it's not just phones that will go off. you might want to tell people you know who are not extremely online if they would be startled by something like this

in reply to @nora's post:

if it functions simularly to how the UK system works(which i think it does as it uses the same part of the 5G/4G spec for the phone part) that will only be the case if they are still broadcasting the alert packets at the time the phone is turned back on, the modem will be off when the phone is off and thus will not be able to receive the packets
