Note 1
: In the event of extreme weather disturbances, such
as storms and hurricanes, the NOAA (National Oceanic
and Atmospheric Administration) sends a weather alert ac-
companied by a 1050 Hz tone and subsequent weather
report on one of the NOAA weather channels. You may
setup the Alert function when receiving the Weather Alert
signal via Menu Item (
6. Misc Setup
,
3. WX Alert
), if
desired.
Note 2
: The Weather Channel mode memorizes the last
Weather Channel you have used, and will retain this infor-
mation until the radio is turned off.
