Can you control the SAME alerts? I had a radio on my night stand but was woken up too many time to Amber alerts. Not that I'm saying I don't care about someones Amber alert but at home when I'm sleeping I'm not going to be anywhere to spot a getaway vehicle. I'd prefer those to be filtered out in that instance but still get them on the vehicle radios.
