About NOAAINWS
The National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration and the National
Weather Service operates a system
of
weather and hazard alert
broadcasts covering most
of
the United States. Typical broadcasts
are within reception distance
of
25-50 miles
of
the weather
station. Fully extend the telescopic antenna and rotate until
reception is clear. The
ER31
0 can receive broadcasts up to 50
miles from the weather station depending on your location and
conditions
of
weather, terrain, etc. If reception is not good, try a
different location to find a spot
of
improved reception. If indoors,
placement near a window usually improves reception. If a weather
broadcast cannot be heard on any
of
the 7 channels, contact your
local NOAAINWS office and verify the closest station is on air.
Their web site is http://www.nws.noaa.gov/nwr/.
