Weather alert function
NOAA broadcast stations transmit weather alert tones before
important weather announcements. When the weather alert
function is turned ON, the selected weather channel is moni-
tored once every 5 sec. for the announcement. When the alert
signal is detected, the “AL.T” and the WX channel are dis-
played alternately and sounds a beep tone until the transceiver
is operated. The previously selected (used) weather channel
is checked periodically during standby or while scanning.
