NOAA tests the alert system every Wednesday between 11AM and 1PM.
To test the NOAA weather feature, setup the transceiver as in section “
NOAA Weather Alert (USA version only)
” and confirm the alert is heard on
Wednesdays between 11AM and 1PM local time.
9.9 MULTI WATCH (TO PRIORITY CHANNEL)
Multi watch is used to scan two or three channels for communications.
• In Dual Watch, a normal VHF channel and the priority channel are scanned
alternately.
• In Triple Watch, a normal VHF channel, the priority channel, and the sub
channel are scanned alternately.
When a signal is received on the normal channel the radio briefly switches
between the normal channel and the priority channel to look for a transmission.

and listens to priority channel until communication ends and then starts dual
