Weather Band Channels
The IC chip supports weather band reception from 162.4 to 162.55 MHz. The highly
integrated IC chip meets NOAA specification, receives all seven NOAA specified
frequencies, implements narrowband FM de-emphasis, and supports 1050 Hz alert
tone detection. In addition, this IC chip provides advanced features not available on
conventional radios, such as an AFC and a dynamic channel bandwidth filter
The weather alert radio can receive 7 weather band (WB) frequencies:
•Channel 1: 162.400MHz
•Channel 2: 162.425MHz
•Channel 3: 162.450MHz
•Channel 4: 162.475MHz
•Channel 5: 162.500MHz
•Channel 6: 162.525MHz
•Channel 7: 162.550MHz
In WB mode the radio will continually broadcasts weather radio.
