WEATHER MODE
The NOAA weather channels now cooperate with the FCC to
alert you of other hazards besides weather (child abduction
alerts, nuclear, biological, etc.). In weather mode, the radio
monitors one of the nine NOAA weather channels. If any type of
alert is received, the radio sounds an alert tone and the display
blinks.

Weather mode with Weather Alert Watch
Because weather mode already monitors the weather channels,
you don’t need Weather Alert Watch to check the weather
channel every seven seconds. If you activate Weather Alert
Watch while operating in weather mode, it operates as a type of
“sleep" mode; the radio stays on the weather channel and mutes
the speaker. If an alert is detected, the radio sounds an alert
tone and turns the speaker back on. This mode is very useful
when you are anchoring for the night but want to keep informed
of hazards.
Weather mode with Triple Watch
If you activate Triple
Watch while operating in
weather mode, the radio
checks channels 9 and
16 every two seconds.
