[Summarizing RadioWorld Report by Nick Langan]
Here’s an important note for stations that update their Sage Alerting Systems Digital ENDEC 3644 with the firmware we told you about yesterday: Once you install the required update, you must also go back and update the FCC’s ETRS Form One.
Sage Alerting Systems released a mandatory firmware that patches compromised eMudhra root certificates.
That means for any station who installs the update, it must amend their ETRS Form One submission to ensure the commission’s records reflect the encoder-decoder software version in use on the nationwide Emergency Alert System test date of Nov. 17.
The free firmware update, designated version 96-2 (also designated 96-02), is required for U.S. users running Rev96 or Rev96-1.
