English: CONELRAD was the first United States emergency warning system for broadcast radio/TV stations. It was only for enemy air attacks, not weather emergencies, and required a few radio stations to switch to 640 kHz and 1240 kHz and all other stations to stop transmitting. It began in 1953 but was soon considered obsolete, and was replaced by the Emergency Broadcast System in 1963.
