Weather
The NOAA weather channels now cooperate with the FCC to
alert you of other hazards besides weather (child abduction
alerts, nuclear, biological, etc.). In weather mode, the
radio monitors one of the ten NOAA weather channels. If a
weather alert signal is received in Weather Alert mode, the
radio sounds an alert tone and the display blinks.

the speaker back on. This mode is very useful when you are
anchoring for the night but want to keep informed of hazards.

If you activate Triple Watch while operating in weather mode,
the radio checks channels 16 and 9 every few seconds; with
Dual Watch turned on, the radio only checks channel 16.
