WEATHER ALERT (TH-K2AT K/ K2 ONLY)

One of the NOAA Weather Radio channels can be programmed to the AL memory channel of the TH-K2AT. The transceiver can be configured to check the NOAA Weather Alert tone (1050 Hz) and will automatically alert you by recalling and monitoring the Weather Radio frequency when the Weather Alert tone is broadcasted.

Programming the Weather Radio Frequency

The transceiver is preprogrammed to 162.550 MHz (WX1). You can store a different frequency to the AL channel to use this function. Refer to the NOAA channel frequency directory for your local Weather Radio frequency before you use the Weather Alert function.
