	Q: How do I update outdated or inaccurate information that auto-populates to my Form One?

	A: If you find that you cannot edit outdated or inaccurate data on Form One, you need to change the data at the source, which is the Commission’s Online Public Inspection File (OPIF). Once that information is corrected in OPIF, it will be updated in ETRS within 24 hours. This is the OPIF sign in page. Here is additional information for OPIF filersPlease email ETRS@fcc.gov with questions.

**Reminder Regarding the Emergency Alert System and Wireless Emergency Alert Sounds (Attention Signals)**

False, Fraudulent, or Unauthorized Use of the EAS or WEA Codes or Attention Signals (or Simulations Thereof) is Strictly Prohibited.  See FCC Enforcement Advisory No. 2019-05 for more information.
