BROADCASTS
The FCC (Federal Communications Commission) has allocated frequen- cies for use by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). Regulatory agencies in other countries have also allocated frequen- cies for use by their weather reporting authorities.
Your local weather reporting authority broadcasts your local forecast and re- gional weather information on one or more of these frequencies. If your scanner is within a weather reporting authority’s broadcast range, you can scan these frequencies.
Your scanner has these weather fre- quencies preprogrammed:
•162.4000 MHz
•162.4250 MHz
•162.4500 MHz
•162.4750 MHz
•162.5000 MHz
•162.5250 MHz
•162.5500 MHz
To hear your local forecast and re- gional weather information, simply press WX. Your scanner scans through the weather frequencies. Your scanner should stop within a few sec- onds on your local weather broadcast.
Follow these steps to manually tune to a specific preprogrammed weather frequency.
1.Press WX.
2.Press HOLD.
3.Repeatedly press s or t to move forward or backward through the frequencies.
