Yes. We comply with FCC regulations that require us to carry national emergency alert announcements similar to ones you hear on terrestrial radio. SiriusXM provides nationwide alerts from the Emergency Alert System on all its channels. State and local emergency alert messages and information specific to major metropolitan markets are provided on SiriusXM's local traffic and weather channels. SiriusXM does not provide state and local emergency alert messages on any of its other channels.

We also carry weekly and monthly emergency alert test announcements, and they usually last for less than one minute. These tests can only be heard on our satellite channels. They cannot be heard on our streaming channels, Sprint phones, the DISH Network (Sirius plans), or AT&T or Alltel (XM plans).
