This feature allows you to check the Weather Broadcast Memory Channels for the pres-
ence of the NOAA Alert Tone while operating using VFO scan or Memory channel scan.
When the Weather Alert Scan feature is engaged, the VX-6E will check the Weather Broad-
cast Memory Channels for activity every five seconds while scanning. If you watch the
display carefully, you’ll observe the scanner periodically shifting to the Weather Broad-
cast bank, scanning the Weather channels quickly in search of the Alert Tone, after which
regular scanning will resume for another five seconds.
To enable the Weather Alert Scan feature:
1. Press the [
F/W
] key, then press the [
0
(
SET
)] key to enter the Set mode.
2. Rotate the DIAL knob to select Set Mode Item 73:
WX ALT WX ALT
WX ALT WX ALT WX ALT .
3. Press the [ 0
(
SET
)] key momentarily to enable adjustment of
this Set Mode Item.
4. Rotate the DIAL knob so as to select “ ON ON ON ON ON .”
5. When you have made your selection, press the PTT key to save
the setting and exit to normal operation.
6. To disable the Weather Alert Scan feature, select “
OFF OFF
OFF OFF OFF ” in step 4 above.
1) When the Weather Alert Scan feature is engaged, the Scan-Resume mode
is fixed to “TIME.”
2) If you are just scanning the Weather Broadcast Channels, the VX-6E’s
receiver will remain muted indefinitely unless the Alert Tone is received. This yields a
long period of monitoring time, as no power will be consumed via audio output while
scanning for the Alert Tone is in progress.
