NOAA Weather Channels

NOAA Weather Channels

Monitoring the weather will probably be a frequent use of your radio. The National
Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) provides continuous, around-the-clock
broadcasts of the latest weather information. Taped weather messages run every four (4)
to six (6) minutes and are revised every two (2) or three (3) hours, or as needed. The Coast
Guard also announces weather and other safety warnings on Channel 16, and then
broadcasts the warning on Channel 22A. Smart boaters keep an eye on safety and 
an ear to the radio — and never let the weather catch them unaware.

NOAA Emergency Weather Alert

In the event of a major storm or other weather condition requiring vessels at sea or on
other bodies of water to be notified, NOAA broadcasts a 1050 Hz tone that receivers
such as your CobraMarine

VHF radio can detect and warn you of a Weather Alert

Condition. When the Weather Alert mode on your radio is On, this signal will produce
a loud tone from the speaker in the radio and a flashing “

ALRT

” icon on the LCD to

signal that a weather alert is being broadcast. To hear the warning itself, you will need
to switch to the Weather Channel you selected.

Test

To test this system, NOAA broadcasts the 1050 Hz signal every Wednesday sometime
between 11 a.m. and 1 p.m. in each local time zone. Any receiver that can detect the
weather alert tone may use this feature to verify that this feature is functioning properly.
