Setting the Weather Alert
Your radio can be set to respond to Weather Radio emergency messages.
A special alarm tone sounds an alert and turns on the weather receiver to
give you immediate weather and emergency information.
1. After turning weather reception on, press “MENU” button twice, On/Off
displays.
2. Press “UP” or “DOWN” button to select On/Off. If you activate Weather Alert
and return to two-way mode, "WX" ALERT icon will display.
3. Press "WX" button to save the Weather Alert setting.
4. Press "PTT" button to return to two-way mode.
As with two-way radio reception, weather channel reception depends on
how close you are to a transmitter and whether you are indoors or
outdoors. Because weather channels are transmitted without codes, they
may contain static or noise. Weather Alert will not function while actively
transmitting or receiving in two-way mode.
