WEATHER BAND RADIO:
The IC Chip supports weather band reception from 162.4 to 162.55
MHz. The highly integrated IC Chip meets NOAA specification,
receives all seven NOAA specified frequencies, implements
narrowband FM de-emphasis, and supports 1050 Hz alert tone
detection. In addition, the IC Chip provides advanced features not
available on conventional radios, such as an AFC and a dynamic
channel bandwidth filter. In WB mode the radio will continually
broadcasts weather radio. Fully extend telescoping antenna.

minimum number of external components and no manual alignment
required. This digital low-IF architecture allows for high-precision
filtering offering excellent selectivity and SNR with minimum variation
across the AM band.
