4.8 Weather Alerts (WX ALERT)
LVR-880US only.
Use WX ALERT to set your preferences for weather alert information.
The NOAA provides several weather forecast channels on USA and Canadian channel banks. If
severe weather such as storms or hurricanes are forecast, the NOAA broadcasts a weather alert on
1050 Hz.
The NOAA All Hazards Weather Radio Service (NWR) works in conjunction with the Emergency Alert
System (EAS) to issue weather alerts for specific geographic areas or specific weather conditions. It
uses a digital encoding system known as SAME (Specific Area Message Encoding) to broadcast
these alerts.
Each transmitter in the NOAA All Hazards Weather Radio Service (NWR) network is identified with a
unique 6-digit SAME code. Each transmitter operates on one of 7 frequencies.
Note: A county ID must be entered to activate a SAME alert.
4.8.1 TONE
ALERT
LVR-880US only.
If TONE ALERT is ON and an alert tone of 1050 Hz is broadcast from the NOAA weather station, the
weather alert is picked up automatically and the alarm sounds. Press any key to cancel the alarm and
to hear the weather alert message.
