Skywarn

The skywarn function lets you jump directly to the 
last channel in memory (Channel 200) from any 
mode by pressing 

FUNC

 + 

. The scanner goes 

into scan hold mode and starts receiving 
transmissions in the last channel. If no frequency is 
programmed in the last channel, No Prg appears 
and the scanner sounds an error tone.

about Skywarn

wind and wind gusts 40 MPH and greater

•

heavy rainfall

•

lightning (cloud-to-cloud and especially cloud-
to-ground)

wall clouds seen in severe thunderstorms 
(which spawn tornadoes)

•

severe lowering of a wall cloud

•

turbulence in a wall cloud

•

funnel clouds
