Did anyone on AT&T or an iPhone receive the test today? I believe it was 
supposed to happen at 2:18 EDT, followed by one on broadcast radio at 2:20 EDT.

I’m in CDT, so 1:18 and 1:20 p.m. CDT.

Message was heard on my desk radio at 1:21:35 p.m. CDT but as of the sending of 
this at 1:52 p.m. CDT, nothing on phones. I have an office full of AT&T iPhones 
and not a single one of them alerted.

FEMA says https://www.fema.gov/emergency-alert-test

"Cell towers will broadcast the WEA test for approximately 30 minutes beginning at 
2:18 p.m. EDT. During this time, WEA compatible cell phones that are switched on, within 
range of an active cell tower, and whose wireless provider participates in WEA should be 
capable of receiving the test message. Some cell phones will not receive the test 
message, and cell phones should only receive the message once."

My wife, with a Sprint iPhone, received the test.
