Things to take notice of in EAMs. 1.) Frequency: Multiple EAMs within the span of an hour mean there is something currently occurring on the global stage that requires units to be given orders and updates.
2.) Length: Long EAMs will be broadcast as 'Message of x Characters follows' Messages long length 50-100 are not typical and are usually sending something along the lines of 'coordinates-time to target-standby on alert level x' Long EAMs are sending a lot of information. In March of 2015, Russia launched surprise military exercises near the borders of Finland and Norway (the latter of which is a NATO Member). When this happened, a SKYKING message lasting 34 minutes was broadcast. Unprecedented by most previous transmitted messages, and, as of the date of this post, none have been nearly that long.
3.) SKYKINGs. These are direct priority messages given to Nuclear Capable Units. Often a band name is used followed by and authentication code. Heres an example youtube.com/watch?v=CBGYaSyVgqA
Offutt Air Force Base near Omaha, Nebraska (the ones that end in "Offutt Out"). This is the headquarters of U.S. Strategic Command (USSTRATCOM) which is charged with space operations (such as military satellites), information operations (such as information warfare), missile defense, global command and control, intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (C4ISR), global strike and strategic deterrence (the United States nuclear arsenal), and combating weapons of mass destruction.
Currently an EAM from callsign: IMMORTAL is being transmitted to an Aircraft callsign: HUMAN46

Recently we had three longer than average EAMs all broadcasted back to back within seconds of each other after Iran tested their new ICBM the other day
The most I've ever heard were about 2 dozen broadcasted in the hours after Turkey shot down a Russian Fighter Jet over Syria
In the film First Strike you can view a few scenes relates to EAMs at 3:00 you'll notice the Comms Operator going of that days code book at 5:27 you'll hear and EAM being broadcasted over the radio
