Weather (Wx)
Dark clouds on the horizon? Press the
WX key to enter the WX (WEATHER)
MODE and get the latest weather information. The last used Wx channel
always appears first. Use the ↑ ↓ keys to change the
WX channel. In
PRIORITY SCAN or MEMORY SCAN MODES, pressing the WX key allows the WX
ALERT function to be toggled off and on. Select the WX channel before
starting a
PRIORITY SCAN or MEMORY SCAN.
If a WX ALERT – a 1050Hz-tone burst transmitted from the NOAA
Weather service – is issued, a special circuit in the radio detects the
tone and during scanning modes (except All Scan), a loud 2-tone warn-
ing will sound. The warning tone is canceled by pressing any key. The
radio will stop scanning and switch to the
WX channel to broadcast the
warning. You know the radio is scanning the
WX channel, if you see the
WX ANNUNCIATOR flash as it scans through the weather channels.
