The final EAS on analog TV in Japan
At 11:32pm on July 24, 2011, an earthquake (4.7 magnitude) hit mainly around Mie prefecture, which would cause TV stations in Japan to start relaying earthquake notices. However, analog broadcasting systems had ended at noon on that day, and had been showing notices since noon. This would cause these earthquake alerts to be the last ones shown on analog TV in Japan. Commercial stations in Oita Prefecture did not show this notice, as they had gone off at 11pm. The main TBS and Fuji TV stations oddly did not show the earthquake warning, although many of its affiliates (including stations in Hokkaido, which would be turned off at 11:50) would end up displaying the message.
