NOAA All Hazards/Weather Radio And Alert
•
Weather Radio
NOAA broadcasts Weather information as described in the NOAA weather
channels section on page 24 of this manual. You can listen to one (1) or
two (2) of these ten (10) channels at any time (only in the
Receive mode).
NOTE
Only one (1) or two (2) of the weather channels will be
operating in any given location. You will need to select
the channel with the strongest signal in your location.
To Listen To The Weather Channels:
1.
From Standby mode, press the Weather/UIC button.
The radio will enter the Weather mode and the icon
will show on the LCD.
2. Press the Channel Up or Channel Down button to
change the weather channels — hold the button for
fast advance.
To exit the Weather mode and return to Standby
mode, press the Weather/UIC button again.
Weather Alert
NOAA also broadcasts special Weather Alerts to warn of
severe weather. These are preceded by a special signal
that your radio can detect. However, you must set your
radio to the weather channel that broadcasts a strong
signal in the area where you are, and you must activate the
Weather Alert mode on your radio to benefit from this signal.
To Activate Weather Alert:
1.
Enter the Weather mode and select a station with a
strong signal as described above.
2. Press and hold the Weather/UIC button for two (2)
seconds to turn the Weather Alert mode On or Off.
The Alert icon on the LCD will turn On or Off.
To exit the
Weather mode and return to Standby mode,
press the Weather/UIC button again.
Weather Alert Signal
When NOAA broadcasts a Weather Alert Signal and your radio is in the Weather
Alert mode, you will hear a continuous audible tone and the Alert icon will flash on
the LCD. The alert indicators will sound and flash regardless of what channel you
are operating on as soon as a NOAA alert signal is received.
When You Hear The Alert:
1.
Press any key to turn Off the alert indicators.
2. Switch to the weather channel you selected to hear the NOAA
emergency broadcast.
