However, Hawaii residents who live or work near a Navy installation may hear some of the notifications during this testing. The test messages will consist of the following: (a) Tone Alert - single frequency tone alert for 5 second duration; (b) Recorded Voice Test Message – "This is a test of the Pearl Harbor Emergency Notification System," and (c) Live Voice Message Stating – "Testing 1, 2, 3, 4."

Of the various types of messages, it is expected that the single frequency tone will travel the furthest distance, which is 1/2 mile to 3/4 mile. The voice messages will travel less distance.
