ABOUT RADIO CHANNELS
The NWR radio channels work in the same way as a
regular radio channel. All of the NWR transmission
stations operate on 1 of 7 frequencies.
The WR 601 labels each frequency as a channel (1-7).
Once the radio frequency for a region has been selected,
the
WR 601 will receive voice and code information
from that station. The radio channel information is located
on the upper left hand corner of the LCD.
To change to radio channel:
1. In any of the time displays, press and hold CHANNEL
for 2 seconds.
2. Press or to switch between various channels.
3. When the appropriate channel has been selected,
press
MODE to confirm and return to the Clock-
Display mode.
