That looks nothing like the tests we get here. The ones here usually have a green background and there's no crawl. They usually run it around late mornings/early afternoons on Wednesdays.

That's pretty much what mine looks like, only it has the WEEKLY REQUIRED TEST at the top, and a scroll under that pretty much explains the test I suppose.. :P

Everybody gets them. They are generated by the cable company, and all cable company's are required to test their EAS equipment.

That's EXACTLY what Comcast's EAS looks like here. Not sure about Verizon's, though, as I haven't seen one yet.
