I heard the WSJZ and WBOS EAS tests ('BOS about 5 min after SJZ)

WBOS did pre-announce 'this is a test of the EAS'

   Same thing happened on WROR,3:10 PM.Austin of Boston(filling in for
J.J.Wright today) had just talked up a song (I forget what song it was) but
a few seconds later I hear the EAS test just cut the song right off.After
test,the song was joined in progress.I wonder if this also happened on the
other 3 Greater Media stations at 55 Morrisey Blvd???
