How Your Radio Works
Note: If you are close to a county or parish line, you
might want to obtain the codes for the nearby coun-
ties or parishes.
Hint: Since you can program up to 15 FIPS codes
into the Weatheradio’s memory, you might want to
obtain the codes for other local areas that you fre-
quently travel through (as long as those areas are
within a 50 mile radius of your location and within an
area covered by your local NWS broadcast station).
That way, you can program those codes into the
Weatheradio and receive broadcasts covering those
locations, too.
