When NOAA broadcasts a weather alert signal and your radio is in WX Alert Standby mode, the following items will be displayed on the LCD display:
■The WX icon (cloud/sun) icon will be displayed.
■The last used weather channel will be displayed.
■The bar graph will display received signal strength level.
■The WX Alert icon (safety triangle) will be displayed.
NOTE
Only one (1) or two (2) of the weather channels will be operating in any given location [only in Receive (Rx) mode]. You will need to select the channel with the strongest signal in your location.
NOTE
