Note:
With regard to the NOAA Weather Band: You need to identify which
band receives your local weather band report. When you change locations
either to another city or state, you may need to choose a different band to
get the local report in that location.
HINTS FOR BEST RECEPTION:
To insure maximum weather band reception, the Telescopic Antenna
should be fully extended and rotated to obtain the best possible station
reception.
2) RECEIVING AN EMERGENCY WEATHER ALERT
The Weather Alert function allows you to set the weather radio to a standby
mode that will turn the radio on automatically if there is a severe weather
emergency in your area. To receive emergency weather alert warnings,
turn the unit on, tune to the strongest local NOAA weather channel, adjust
the volume to a level that you will hear when an alert is received. The radio
remains silent until an “alert” broadcast occurs.
