Weather (T6220 Only)

You can’t change the weather, but you can be prepared for it

whenever you take your Motorola Talkabout T6220 radio with

you. That’s because it tunes into National Oceanic and

Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Weather Radio broadcasts.

You can listen to a weather channel or you can even set your

radio to alert you to emergency weather broadcasts.

And because NOAA Weather Radio now broadcasts warning information for all types of hazards, routine broadcasts are

interrupted during emergencies for natural and technological warnings, watches, and other critical information.

NOAA has transmitters located throughout the United States and Canada that broadcast National Weather Service warnings, watches, forecasts, and other hazard information 24 hours a day.

Whenever you listen to a weather channel, you cannot use your radio for two-way communications. However, a weather alert will notify you while the radio is in two- way mode (if you have enabled weather alert) and the radio is on but not transmitting or receiving.

Turning On Weather Channel Reception

To turn on weather channel reception, press and hold the Ro button. To turn off

weather channel reception and return to two-way mode, press and hold the Ro button again.
