Skywarn
Many areas of the country have amateur radio repeaters that have been
designated as “Skywarn” repeaters. During times of severe weather,
these repeaters are used to relay reports of severe weather directly to
meteorologists at a local National Weather Service (NWS) forecast office.
Using the Skywarn feature in your scanner, you can easily jump to Skywarn
repeater frequencies and monitor these reports, in many cases hearing
about severe weather in your area instantly as it occurs.
This function lets you quickly move to the skywarn channel (Channel 200)
from any mode by pressing and holding WX/ about 2 seconds. The
scanner displays .
Notes:
• To activate this function, you must program your desired Skywarn
frequency into the Skywarn channel.
• Your scanner enters into Scan/Manual mode when the scanner jumps to
the skywarn channel.
