Weather Band Operation
This radio receives continuous U.S. Government Weather Broadcasts from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), part of the Department of Commerce. This National Weather Radio service includes more than 750 transmitters covering all 50 states and adjacent coastal waters, Puerto Rico, the U. S. Virgin Islands, and the U.S. Pacific Territories. The weather broadcasts are transmitted on seven separate bands from 162.400 MHz to 162.550 MHz.
To hear the weather reports, press the WEATHER button on the top cabinet at any time. If you were listening to another band the radio will automatically switch to the weather band.
The volume level is fixed at optimum listening level on Instant Weather operation. In order to increase or decrease the volume level, turn the VOLUME Control.
Note: Since the National Weather Radio transmitters operate at much lower power than commercial radio stations, the volume on the weather band will be lower than for AM/FM or TV bands. This is normal and not an indication of any trouble with your unit. Adjust the VOLUME when listening to the Weather Band if necessary.
