The main purpose of multistation mode is to enable targeted EAS alert origination/forwarding to specific
collocated stations.
IMPORTANT NOTE: This does not lessen the importance of base station forwarding.
Correct base station forwarding is critically important in multistation mode. It is used for
National Alerts (EAN and EAT) and for selected high priority alerts requiring quick
propagation to the public. In both cases simultaneous alert broadcast must occur on the
entire set of DASDEC II controlled stations. Make sure the DASDEC II will correctly
broadcast an EAS to ALL stations with a single alert broadcast while in
multistation mode.
