West Marine VHF150 Radio Owner’s Manual
Weather Channel, Stored Channels, and
Dual/TripleWatch Scanning
You can store your NOAA weather channel in memory in the
same manner as any other marine channel using the steps
on page 5.
For this example, you have stored 8 marine channels. You
have pressed
WX
to display one weather channel. You have
selected the TripleWatch option using the RADIO MENU
setup. Now you press
SCAN/MEM
. Scanning takes place in
the order shown below. Every 2 seconds, during the scan-
ning of the 8 marine channels, the radio checks channels 9
and 16. Then, approximately every 7 seconds, the radio
checks the selected weather channel and then channels 9
and 16.
To learn about other sections which contain details dealing
with General Setup, Battery Operation and Charging, Menu
Options, Storing Channels, Scanning Channels, and using
the special features of either Triple or DualWatch, consult the
Table of Contents which immediately preceeds these Quick
Start pages.
