I think they recommend getting a dedicated receiver because most people are not monitoring a local TV or radio station anymore throughout the day. The way alerting is implemented on many VHF ham rigs is a bit janky, so a dedicated receiver is definitely the way to go, IMO.

Interesting that they recommend purchasing a dedicated receiver. NOAA
KLOX/KIH34 on 162.4 is a required monitor for SB County EAS covering
radio and TV broadcasters as well as cable systems, so these alerts
should also be heard on any radio or TV broadcast receiver in the area.
I suspect that IPAWS will also pick it up.
