PROGRAMMING YOUR LOCATION
Your
Weather Radio
is pre-programmed to receive seven NOAA
broadcast frequencies (channel1-7):
NOAA Radio Channels
1 2 3 4 5 6 7
162.400MHz 162.425MHz 162.450MHz 162.475MHz 162.500MHz 162.525MHz 162.550MHz
After the strongest available channel has been detected by your

automatically pre-set.
You can customize your radio and program it with FIPS codes to listen for
only those events that you are interested in. You can enable advisories,
watch and warnings, to report only on events that are happening in your
surrounding location for example.
