continuous reports of the local weather conditions and forecasts throughout the
United States. Taped weather messages are repeated every four to six minutes
on a 24-hour basis and are routinely revised every one to three hours, or more fre-
quently if needed.
During severe weather, the routine weather broadcasts will be interrupted with
special weather warning messages.
The JMCB-2003 is designed to receive all these special weather frequencies
plus three international marine frequencies. An NOAA Weather Radio Network
Frequency pamphlet is enclosed to identify the frequencies specifically broadcast
for your geographical area.

weather broadcast frequencies as listed below:

8) Function indication “beep” can be turned on or off by depressing the MODE but-
ton two (2) times. The LCD display will show the word ON or OFF. To turn the beep
on or off, switch between the CHL UP and CHL DN buttons.
9) The HI/LO PWR selection controls the transmit (TX) power output. The low
power setting is often preferred when riding on close proximity to other motorcy-
cles you are communicating with to reduce distortion and improve overall voice
clarity.
8. Antenna Information
The maximum allowable CB transmitting power is limited by FCC regulations. The
antenna is a major component in the strength of the CB radio’s transmission sig-
nal and its reception range.
