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.
