Program SAME
SAME (Specific Area Messaging System) is a system developed by the National Weather Service
to reduce the number of alerts received by consumers by allowing them to hear alerts only for the
county(ies) they are interested in. Each alert contains information about the type and severity of
the alert, as well as the specific geographic locations affected by the alert.
To receive SAME alerts, you can program up to
5 groups of 8 FIPS codes
(40 codes) into the
scanners memory.
To find the FIPS codes for your scanner call the NWS toll free at 1-888-697-7263 (follow the
instructions you hear) or refer to http://www.nws.noaa.gov/nwr/indexnw.htm for the United States
and its Possessions.
