This happened across the U.S. back in 1971: EBS Warning.

I was working in television at the time but not on the weekends, so I missed it. There was a sealed milia envelope posted in Engineering and I was always curious as to what it said. Never did find out. Whoever was working in the control room on that Saturday would not have heard the wire serve bells since they were in the newsroom which was about 30 yards away and the control room was soundproofed, so I doubt that we participated in it, anyway.
