Important Notice

The US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) broadcasts continuous weather reports and severe weather alerts, as needed. The RAY215E can be programmed to receive 10 NOAA weather channels and sound an alarm if a weather alert is received.

Weather operation is available only in US frequency mode, which requires a software upgrade for access. Some countries require special licensing to activate the US channel set.

NOAA weather broadcasts can only be heard in the US and Canada.
