To provide a communication apparatus capable of making an earthquake notification tentatively.

When it is determined that an operation is made from an input unit to instruct an earthquake notification to be made tentatively (step S210), a control unit goes on with processing to step S220. In the step S220, the control unit reads audio data or display data for a test mode being stored in a flash memory 20 and goes on with processing to step S230. In the step S230, the control unit outputs from a speaker the audio data for the test mode read from the flash memory and displays on a display unit the display data for the test mode read from the flash memory.
