West Marine VHF155 Radio Owner’s Manual
Normal mode with Weather Alert Watch
If you activate
Weather Alert
Watch while
operating in
normal mode, the radio checks the
most recently used weather channel
every seven seconds. If it detects a
weather or other hazard alert, it will
switch to that weather channel. (If
you are actively transmitting, the
radio waits until you finish your
transmission before checking the weather channel.)
Normal mode with Triple Watch or Dual Watch
If you activate Triple Watch while operating in normal
mode, the radio checks channels 16 and 9 every two
seconds; with Dual Watch turned on, the radio only
checks channel 16. The radio will not check channels 16
or 9 while you are actively transmitting; it waits until your
transmission is finished and then checks the channels.
